Podere Le Ripi Brunello di Montalcino Amore & Magia 2017

A deep ruby red, richer when compared to wines grown from our other vineyards. In the nose, it expresses itself as a symphony of aromas ranging from the intense smell of red-orange and violets to fresh balsamic herbal notes. This vineyard is characterized by a more creamy and silky taste coupled with a fun and vibrant saltiness. The 2018 vintage was mild with some refreshing rains in September. Wines from this vintage are certainly rich and Mediterranean. But we think that with the appropriate manoeuvres in the cellar, especially thanks to a longer time spent in the cement vats, the wines have an interesting energy and a long aging potential.

Full-bodied and savory, this has alluring aromas of baked plum, fragrant blue flowers and forest floor. Concentrated but also endowed with a beguiling weightlessness, the smooth, enveloping palate delivers juicy black cherry, raspberry jam, licorice and espresso set against velvety, fine-grained tannins.
