This Chianti has complexity, elagance but most importantly - a sense of place. The wine has developed a rich garnet hue on account of the bottle age. The nose is robust with flavours of dried cherries, plums and vanilla jumping out of the glass. You get some lovely tertiary flavours on the palate too with leather, mocha and earthiness all enveloped with the acidity of a wine half its age. This can be enjoyed straight away and you will not be disappointed but will also reward some more years of cellaring.

This blend of 5% sangiovese, 15% malvasia nera and 10% cabernet is very dark carmine red. The wine explodes on the palate with hints of wild dark cherries and black currant with notes of spice and mediteranean herbs. Dark and powerful yet very elegant, it impresses for its exceptional balance and purity. Enjoy this wine with venison and red meat.

Beautifully balanced, this opens with alluring scents of wild berry, rose, baking spice and whiffs of chopped herb. Seamlessly combining ripe fruit and the firm's trademark finesse, the bright elegantly structured palate delivers juicy wild cherry, crushed raspberry, white pepper and a hint of black tea framed in polished tannins and fresh acidity. Improves greatly with aeration so decant at least six hours ahead for maximum enjoyment.

The Brunello is a wine of immense presence. It commands you from the first sniff; both grape material and vintage show their full class. This wine spends around 30 months in large casks (500-700 litre) followed by additional time in concrete before resting in bottle for a further 18 months.
