Mastrojanni MASTROJANNI Brunello di Montalcino 2019

Description

The 2019 Mastrojanni Brunello di Montalcino presents hints of undergrowth, Mediterranean scrub and great minerality, distinctive characteristics of the Castelnuovo dell’Abate sub-area. The wine ages for 36 months in Allier oak barrels and refines in the bottle for at least 6 months to then present a brilliant and intense ruby red with pale garnet reflections. Vanilla blends with spices and a note of tobacco leaf. On the palate it is pleasant and of good length. The ending is generous

Mastrojanni is located in Castelnuovo dell’Abate, in the south-eastern corner of Montalcino, in the province of Siena. The soil gives great character to the Sangiovese of this historic estate.
