Comment on noteThe wine
Imagine yourself, in the heart of Tuscany, where the hills roll under the sun. That's where I unearthed a gem, a wine that whispers the story of its terroir. This Brunello di Montalcino from Canalicchio Di Sopra is not just a wine, it's an invitation to a sensory journey.
The Canalicchio Di Sopra estate is a name that resonates with respect in Montalcino. Here, Sangiovese Grosso, the king grape variety of the Brunello di Montalcino DOCG appellation, is raised with meticulous care. The 2021 vintage I had the chance to taste is the fruit of careful winemaking, with fermentation in steel tanks and a long maceration, respecting tradition to extract the best from this noble grape variety. The minimum five-year aging, including at least two years in wooden barrels, gives it its complexity and depth.
Visually, this wine will seduce you with its intense ruby red color, which will tend toward garnet over time, a sign of its beautiful evolution. On the nose, expect a generous aromatic bouquet, where notes of ripe red fruits, spices, tobacco, and balsamic nuances mingle. With a little patience, earthy and leather accents will reveal themselves, testifying to its evolution in the bottle. On the palate, this Brunello reveals remarkable elegance and power. The tannins are well integrated, balanced by beautiful freshness. You will find flavors of cherry, plum, spices, and even chocolate, which stretch into a long and persistent finish, a true ode to the complexity and nobility of this wine.
To accompany this Brunello di Montalcino, I recommend thinking of bold and intense flavors. It will be an ideal companion for red meats, game, or aged cheeses. Imagine it with a dish of pasta with wild mushrooms or a beautiful piece of braised beef, the flavors will marry wonderfully. This is a wine that calls for grand occasions, dinners among friends where time stretches out, or simply an intimate moment where you want to treat yourself with an exceptional wine. Let yourself be tempted by this authentic expression of Tuscany, an unforgettable experience awaits you.
