Martoccia Brunello di Montalcino 2017

The 2017 Martoccia Brunello di Montalcino is a robust and deeply expressive red, reflecting the intensity of a warm and dry vintage. It pours an intense ruby red with garnet reflections. The nose is broad and complex, featuring concentrated aromas of ripe black cherries, sun-dried plums, and blackberries, elegantly intertwined with notes of sweet tobacco, dark chocolate, leather, and sophisticated balsamic hints. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and powerful, characterized by dense, ripe tannins and a solid structure. Despite the warmth of the year, it maintains a core of vibrant acidity that provides balance, leading to a long, persistent finish marked by savory spice, forest floor, and lingering dark fruit.
