Tassi Bruno 2022

Tassi Brunò 2022 is a characterful Tuscan red that showcases Sangiovese Grosso in a more approachable, early-drinking style. Crafted by the respected Tassi estate, this wine bridges the gap between everyday pleasure and the refined structure associated with Montalcino. It captures the soul of Tuscany with ripe fruit, savory nuance, and the elegance that Sangiovese Grosso is famed for.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, Tassi Brunò 2022 shows a vibrant medium ruby color with youthful violet reflections at the rim. The nose is immediately inviting, with aromas of wild cherries, red plums, and raspberry compote layered with notes of dried herbs, violets, and a gentle hint of tobacco and spice. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied and lively, with juicy red fruit at its core—think sour cherry, redcurrant, and a touch of strawberry—balanced by fresh acidity and fine, lightly chalky tannins. Subtle notes of dried Mediterranean herbs, a touch of leather, and a faint earthiness add complexity without overwhelming the bright fruit. The finish is clean, savory, and pleasantly persistent, making it highly drinkable now. While primarily made for enjoyment in its youth, it can develop additional softness and harmony over the next 3–5 years.

Production
Tassi Brunò 2022 is sourced from hillside vineyards in southern Tuscany, where Sangiovese Grosso thrives in a mix of clay, limestone, and galestro (crumbly marl) soils. These well-drained slopes and the warm, sunny climate, tempered by cool evening breezes, help retain acidity while achieving optimal ripeness. Grapes are typically harvested by hand to ensure careful selection of bunches at the right maturity. In the cellar, the wine is vinified traditionally: gentle crushing and fermentation in temperature-controlled tanks to preserve aromatics and purity of fruit, followed by maturation in a combination of neutral wood and/or tank to round the tannins while keeping the focus on freshness and varietal character.

Food & Serving
Tassi Brunò 2022 is a versatile food wine that shines with classic Tuscan dishes and simple, ingredient-driven cooking. Pair it with tomato-based pastas, pizza with cured meats, grilled pork sausages, roasted chicken, or bistecca tagliata. It also works beautifully with mushroom risotto, aged Pecorino Toscano, and charcuterie boards. Serve at around 16–18°C (60–64°F) to highlight its freshness and aromatics. A brief 20–30 minutes of aeration in a carafe or opening the bottle ahead of time will help the wine open up, but extended decanting is not necessary.
