Why you'll love it
A top-rated Brunello from a leading historic Tuscan estate — powerful, elegant, and built to age.
Deep cherry and plum, with layers of leather, wild herbs, tobacco and dark spices. Balanced acidity, firm and silky tannins, and a long, mineral-tinged finish with hints of orange peel and earth.
Perfect with roast lamb, game, slow-braised beef, rich pasta sauces or mature cheeses.
Best known in Tuscany, Emilia-Romagna
Italy's most important red grape. Sour cherry, tomato leaf, herbs and firm acidity, with tannins that love food. It is the grape behind Chianti, Brunello di Montalcino and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, and ranges from light and lively to deep and ageworthy.
Italy
Italy's most celebrated wine region. Chianti Classico, Brunello di Montalcino, Vino Nobile di Montepulciano — all Sangiovese, all distinct. The Super Tuscans broke the rules in the 1970s and created an entirely new style. Hills, cypress trees, and wine that belongs on the table.
Tuscany, Italy
Brunello di Montalcino made from 100% Sangiovese. The vineyard is split into four small parcels planted between 2001 and 2006 and farmed organically. The Riserva is made by Donatella Cinelli Colombini. Love Wine stocks the 2019 and the 2015 Riserva.

The vineyard is divided into 4 small parcels planted between 2001 and 2006 with a density of 5,500 vines per hectare and trained with the spurred cordon system and cultivated following the organic regime so without the use of product for chemical synthesis.
