Silvio Nardi Brunello di Montalcino Manachiara 2016

Silvio Nardi Brunello di Montalcino Manachiara 2016 is a precise, site-driven Brunello that captures the power and structure of the estate’s eastern side. Made exclusively from Sangiovese grown in the historic Manachiara vineyard, it is produced only in the finest vintages and in very limited quantities, making it a particularly sought-after expression of Montalcino.

Tasting Notes
Expect a deep ruby-garnet color and an aromatic profile that leans toward ripe red cherry, wild berries, dried herbs, tobacco, and a touch of balsamic spice. With air, notes of leather, forest floor, and subtle oak nuances emerge, adding complexity without overwhelming the fruit. On the palate, it is structured and firmly built, with plenty of energy, ripe tannins, and a long, savory finish. The 2016 vintage should have the balance to age gracefully for many years, developing greater depth, earthiness, and elegance over time.

Production
Manachiara comes from the eastern side of the Tenute Silvio Nardi holdings, where the site’s terroir lends the wine its power, firmness, and structure. The vineyard is the estate’s oldest, planted more than 40 years ago, and the fruit is selected exclusively from this parcel in outstanding vintages. Production is limited to around 10,000 bottles, underlining the careful, high-quality vinification approach behind this Brunello.

Food & Serving
This Brunello pairs beautifully with braised beef, wild boar, roast lamb, truffle dishes, and aged Pecorino. Serve at 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 1–2 hours if drinking young to allow the wine to open fully and soften its tannins.

Producer
Tenute Silvio Nardi is one of Montalcino’s respected historic producers, known for crafting Brunello that reflects both estate character and vineyard specificity. The winery has helped define the region’s reputation for structured, age-worthy Sangiovese, and Manachiara stands out as one of its finest single-vineyard expressions, produced only in top years.
