The La Fortuna 2011 Brunello di Montalcino reminds us of the elegant and nuanced side of Sangiovese that can be harnessed even in a challenging vintage like this. Despite the warm growing season, this wine shows depth and precision with wild berry tones that are followed by lingering aromas of balsam herb and licorice.

Cherry and raspberry flavors are accented by tobacco and earth notes, all wrapped up in dusty tannins. This is balanced on the dry side in the end. Best from 2018 through 2027. 1,100 cases made, 700 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Brunello di Montalcino Select to Add
