Born in the prestigious vineyards of Tuscany, this fine tipple is revered for its complex profile that marries intensity with elegance.

Oak-aged maturity brings forth a sophisticated structure adding depth to its iconic personality. Exceptionally long-lasting and harmonious, this Brunello di Montalcino has the finesse of a truly distinguished wine, ideal for special occasions.

Tasting Notes

Campo del Drago enjoys one of its highest expressions when paired with the succulence and softness of pigeon, whose breast is served here at its most delicate. The bold spicing of the wine is perfectly at one with the flavor combination bestowed to the meat by the beetroot, celeriac and the exotic overtones of coffee.
