Banfi Brunello di Montalcino DOCG 2019

The classic Brunello from Montalcino's most celebrated estate.

Banfi's Brunello di Montalcino is the wine that introduced this great appellation to the world. Crafted from Sangiovese Grosso — known locally as Brunello — grown on the estate's hillside vineyards in Montalcino, this is a wine of intensity, elegance, and remarkable aging potential. The 2019 vintage is one of Tuscany's finest in recent years: vibrant, fresh, and deeply expressive.

Tasting Notes
Intense and elegant on the nose — ruby red with delicate garnet highlights. An intense bouquet with sweet notes of blackberry and blackcurrant, combined with floral hints of rose that contribute freshness and vitality. On the palate, it's full-bodied with soft, smooth tannins well-integrated with a marked acidity that gives the wine its characteristic lift and longevity.

The Finish
Long, clean, and satisfying — with the kind of acidity and structure that promises beautiful development over the next decade and beyond.
