Altesino Brunello di Montalcino 2021

Altesino Brunello di Montalcino 2021 is a refined expression of Sangiovese from one of Tuscany’s most respected estates. Combining elegance, structure, and the unmistakable character of Montalcino, it captures the appeal of Brunello in a fresh and современно-balanced 2021 vintage.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows the deep ruby-garnet hue typical of youthful Brunello. The nose opens with ripe cherry, dried rose, violets, and subtle notes of leather, tobacco, and sweet spice. On the palate, it is layered and focused, with bright acidity supporting red berry fruit, savory herbs, earth, and fine-grained tannins. The finish is long and persistent, with the structure to develop beautifully over time. While already impressive, it should gain complexity with several years of cellaring.

Production
Produced in the hills of Montalcino in Tuscany, the wine benefits from a terroir shaped by altitude, good drainage, and a warm but temperate Mediterranean climate. Sangiovese grapes are typically harvested by hand to preserve fruit quality and ensure selection in the vineyard. Vinification follows the traditional Brunello approach, with careful fermentation and maturation in wood to build structure, depth, and aging potential.

Food & Serving
This Brunello pairs beautifully with roasted lamb, beef tenderloin, game, truffle dishes, and rich pasta with mushroom or meat sauces. Serve at 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 1–2 hours if opening young to allow the wine to fully раскрыть its aromas and texture.

Producer
Altesino is one of the benchmark producers in Montalcino, with a long-standing reputation for quality and innovation. The estate has played an important role in helping establish the prestige of Brunello di Montalcino, and it is widely respected for wines that combine tradition, precision, and aging potential.
