Rocca delle Macie Brunello di Montalcino Esperienza No. 8 2012

Montalcino, Siena, Tuscany, ItalyThese are early days for this Brunello but Sergio Zingarelli is committed to making the king of sangiovese at Rocca delle Macie. Expect a fragrant, elegantly styled sangiovese with classic floral red fruit on the nose and palate. The styling is all about balance, with persistent yet understated power. The best fruit from top blocks is aged in Slavonian oak barrels for three years, followed by more time in the bottle. One to watch in the coming years.Tasted: 01 February 2018Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
