The Casanuova delle Cerbaie 2018 Brunello di Montalcino opens to a rusty or metallic-mineral note that recalls iron ore or pencil shaving. That dark side of the wine complements blackcurrant and dried blackberry. Additionally, there is a balsamic side to the wine with rosemary essence, cola and medicinal herb. It finishes with soft intensity and an accessible, mid-weight texture. Fruit is sourced over 10 hectares with rocky galestro and calcareous soils at 350 meters in elevation. Exactly 23,482 bottles were made.
