La Serena Brunello di Montalcino 2015

Colour

Intense and brilliant ruby red with refined garnet reflections.

Bouquet

Complex and full of expressions with an attack of fresh and inviting fruity notes, especially small black berries, followed by subtle sweet spicy hints and elegant balsamic suggestions with a finish of dried tobacco leaf.

Flavour

Long, lively and at the same time silky tannins, well supported by a good level of acidic freshness, ample volume and opulent body with an admirable final result in terms of harmony, integration and balance of the components.

Pairing

For the typical complexity of this brunello we recommend structured dishes, typical of the Tuscan tradition, based on meat and game Excellent combined with mature cheeses for an after meal meditation.
