Product Notes

San Polo Brunello di Montalcino is an exquisite Italian red wine, capturing the essence of Tuscany in every glass. Grown on sloping hillsides in the Brunello region, this wine imparts rich, full-bodied flavours that marry fruitiness and spice with finesse. Its refined bouquet of red berries is sealed with undertones of oak. A mature palate is rewarded with hints of chocolate and dried spices, alongside velvety tannins, bringing a wonderful depth of taste. This winsome combination makes this Brunello di Montalcino wine a must-try for any wine enthusiast. From first sip to last, it’s a captivating symphony of Tuscan winemaking.

Tasting Notes

In the glass, this Brunello has an intense ruby red colour with garnet hues. The typical aromas of violets and red berries are followed by hints of vanilla, cedar and coffee. On the palate, it is full-bodied and warm with a densely-woven texture and robust tannins, while the finish is persistent and rounded.
