2019 Fuligni - Brunello di Montalcino Riserva - 6 Bottles (0.75L)

The Fuligni family lived in the early 20th century in the Tuscan Maremma. To escape malaria, the family moved to Montalcino and in 1923 bought from Gontrano Biondi Santi the estate Cottimelli, named after the 16th-century monastery that stood there. This is the classic zone where Brunello has always been made. Fuligni also bought an 18th-century palazzo in the center of Montalcino with beautiful vaulted cellars where wines are still aged today. In 1971, after the death of her father, Maria Flora Fuligni took the family estate in hand and changed course. Where the wine under her father served only family and friends, from 1975 she began bottling and selling Brunello. In total there are 12 hectares of vineyards, of which 10 hectares yield Brunello di Montalcino and 2 hectares Rosso di Montalcino. The Brunello matures first for about four months in large barriques (500-750 liters) to fix the color and then for another 2.5 years in large foeders of Slovenian oak. The elegant and complex Riserva is made only in good years and receives an extra year of barrel aging. This extremely elegant and refined Brunello has a garnet-red color. The complex nose is dominated by aromas of dark fruit, such as blackberries and raspberries, supplemented by spicy notes. On the palate it is full and layered, with firm but velvet-soft tannins and a slightly bitter finish. The fruity flavors and fresh acidity balance this powerful character perfectly. Cellaring potential until 2042 medium-bodied, powerful, dry, nicely fruity, reasonably spicy, balanced wood influence, fairly mineral, delicate tannins, beautifully integrated acids Sold from personal wine cellar A top winery and personal favorite
