2009 Campogiovanni Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 'Il Quercione'

Winemaker's Notes

Produced only in exceptional growing years, this Riserva is considered by San Felice to be the finest expression of its Campogiovanni terroir. Carefully-selected clusters of Sangiovese Grosso from its 2.5-hectare Il Quercione vineyard yield a wine that effortlessly marries together depth, elegance, and authenticity of style, plus a remarkable capacity for lengthy ageing.

Tasting Note

Very deep ruby; releases remarkably emphatic fragrances of ripe berry fruit, spice, cocoa power, and tanned leather. Very full in the mouth, lean in character but with warm alcohol and ripe, juice tannins.
