The Ciacci Piccolomini d'Aragona Brunello di Montalcino appears a ruby red color verging on garnet in the glass. The bouquet is intense, fruit-forward, spicy and floral with hints of red berry fruits enriched by delicate spicy notes. Warm, soft and very well balanced on the palate; well structured with soft tannins and long aftertaste.
Great companion to roasted and stewed game meat. Excellent with mature cheeses and traditional hand-made pasta featuring red meat and game ragout.
100% Sangiovese. Fermentation and refinement takes place in stainless steel and glass concrete vats, temperature-controlled via cooling plates and jackets. Aging in oak barrels for an extended period, followed by refinement in the bottle.
The Ciacci Piccolomini d'Aragona 2020 Brunello di Montalcino is a grippy, lifted wine with aromas of black fruit, crushed stone, grilled rosemary and lavender. The wine reveals a meaty and ripe texture with chewy fruit flavors in this hot vintage. The high 15% alcohol content makes for a less elegant drinking experience. This is a generous release of 66,000 bottles and larger formats. Anticipated Maturity: 2025-2038
