Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Docg 2015
Starting from: €72,00
2015 a five star vintage characterized by rich aromas and silky tannins in the mouth, great harmony on the palate and an extraordinary finesse. A great Brunello.
The Brunello Riserva by Donatella Cinelli Colombini comes from a small vineyard of about two hectares called “Ardita” and situated on top of the hill that dominates Casato Prime Donne. It was planted in 2001 with Sangiovese vines cultivated with the spurred cordon method. It has a density of 5.500 vines per hectare and is cultivated by hand all year long, right up to the harvest. Donatella’s ancestors were owners of this property already at the end of the 16th century but the extraordinary qualitative potential of the Ardita vineyard emerged with the recent climatic changes, getting attention from experts all over the world as one of the best vineyards in Montalcino.
The area with best quality potential is destined to the production of Brunello Riserva. The grapes are handpicked and the clusters are chosen one by one. The vineyards are cultivated following the organic regime and are certified since 2018.
Brunello Riserva is one of the finest red wines in the world because of its extraordinary quality and the great cellaring ability. It can defy the century mark!
Brunello does not become Riserva; it is born to be Riserva right from the beginning, in the moment when the grapes are chosen to make it. In the 2015 vintage the total production was of only 10.000 bottles.
