Lisini Brunello di Montalcino Ugolaia 2017
Considered one of the major expressions of Italian enology, Brunello di Montalcino is produced exclusively with grapes of the homonymous vine, which represents a variety of Sangiovese Grosso. The Brunello di Montalcino of the Azienda Agricola Lisini distinguishes itself for its truly superior characteristics obtained through continuous cultivation of vines, cultivated with traditional methods and excluding any practice of forcing, careful selection and removal of the growing bunches and a accurate grain sorting during the grape harvest. All this, coupled with the most modern winemaking methods, ensures an exceptional level even with seasonally unfavorable trends. Here's how one of the most renowned Italian oenologists has judged the Brunello di Montalcino, Lepini: Ruby red cargo that is matched with years in brilliant orange. scent bouquet slightly ethereal with extraordinary elegance with hints of goudron, undergrowth, tobacco, purple and vanilla; dry, but at the same time soft, full and harmonious, firm and viperous, sturdy and aristocratic cloth; full breed.
