Palagetto Brunello di Montalcino

Wine Profile

About This Wine

Rich and elegant with good structure, layered flavors, and medium body. Boasts black licorice, earth, tobacco, leather and forest flavors from longer oak aging. "Brunello" means "little brown one."  Italian law prohibits any temperature intervention in the growing cycle of Brunello (Sangiovese) grapes.  The winery has sold its vineyard in Montalcino and bottles will only be available until it sells out (which it will!).  If you're looking for a wine to put aside for a special occasion, this elegant Brunello develops richer flavors and smoother texture as it ages.  Stock up now so you can enjoy this phenomenal wine for years to come.
