Brunello di Montalcino 2017

La Palazzetta taps their oldest vines for this Brunello. Ruby-hued and intense, it bursts with blueberry and blackberry aromas, plus hints of chocolate. Over three years in French oak casks give the palate plenty of time to develop complexity and soft tannins. The Brunello has a garnet red color. The bouquet is intense and rich in aromas, with fruit notes of blueberry and blackberry, combined with hints of chocolate.
