Castello Banfi Brunello di Montalcino Vigna Marrucheto 2021

Castello Banfi Brunello di Montalcino Vigna Marrucheto is a refined expression of Sangiovese from one of Tuscany’s most respected estates. Born from the Mariani family’s passion for quality and innovation since 1978, it brings together the elegance of Brunello with the depth and structure that have made Montalcino a benchmark for world-class Italian red wine.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a classic ruby-red colour, hinting at both freshness and concentration. The nose is lifted and inviting, with aromas of ripe red fruits leading the way and suggesting a wine that balances brightness with maturity. On the palate, it is full-bodied and polished, with soft tannins that give the wine a supple, approachable texture. The finish is long and persistent, showing the kind of depth and ageing potential expected from Brunello di Montalcino, with the structure to develop further in bottle over time.

Production
Produced in Toscana from Sangiovese grown for Brunello di Montalcino, Vigna Marrucheto benefits from the distinctive terroir of Montalcino, where hillside vineyards and a warm Mediterranean climate help Sangiovese achieve ripeness, aromatics and balance. While detailed vinification notes are not provided, the wine reflects Banfi’s careful, quality-driven approach to estate production.

Food & Serving
This Brunello pairs beautifully with roasted lamb, grilled steak, game, wild mushroom risotto, and aged cheeses. Serve at around 16–18°C to bring out its aromas and balance, and consider decanting for about an hour if drinking young to allow the wine to open fully.
