Cotarella Le Macioche Brunello Di Montalcino 2015 1.5L Magnum

An exceptional magnum delivering incredible poise and precision. The complex nose opens with classic aromas of ripe red cherries, leather, sweet spices, and wild herbs. On the refined palate, firm yet elegant tannins support concentrated red fruit and tobacco flavors, beautifully balanced by a fresh acidity.

Food Pairing: Complements roasted prime rib, slow-cooked venison stews, traditional wild boar ragu, and well-aged cheeses like Pecorino Toscano or Parmigiano Reggiano.

93 Points - James Suckling

Extremely floral with dried-tea, strawberry and cherry aromas. Full-bodied and chewy with a flavorful finish. Bitter orange at the end. Needs time to open. Better after 2022.

93 Points - Wine Spectator

Packed with ripe cherry, strawberry, floral and mineral aromas and flavors, this red is charming and harmonious. Already approachable, with refined tannins that should be absorbed in the short term. Fine length. Best from 2022 through 2038. 1,000 cases made, 650 cases imported.
