Brunelli's 2017 Rosso di Montalcino is glorious. Silky, racy and inviting, the 2017 is a total joy to taste. Sweet red cherry, spice, cedar, leather and tobacco all grace this impeccably balanced, classy Rosso from Gianni Brunelli. All the elements fall into place in a delicious, open-knit Rosso that will delight readers with its sheer appeal. The 2017 is a real standout.

The lovely 2017 Rosso di Montalcino is an easy drinking Tuscan red to pair with pasta or grilled meats. The wine offers a first wave of bright fruit with plump cherry and plum. That is soon followed by Sangiovese-specific tones of rose bud, potting soil and grilled herb. The wine is aged in Slavonian oak casks for a brief seven months. That means the wine's freshness and fruity appeal is very much intact. Some 13,067 bottles and 120 magnums were made.
