Produced from 100% Sangiovese and estate-grown fruit, it reflects the thoughtful, artisanal approach of a small family winery with deep creative roots. This is a Brunello with both immediate appeal and the structure to age gracefully for years to come.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 2015 vintage shows a classic Brunello profile with a deep ruby color and a polished, refined presence in the glass. Aromatically, it opens with plum, cherry, violet, eucalyptus, leather and subtle herbal notes, followed by a touch of espresso and spice.\n\nOn the palate, it is full-bodied and layered, with juicy red fruit, savory undertones and firm yet silky tannins. The wine feels linear and focused, finishing long with notes of tobacco, underbrush and mineral precision. While already enjoyable now, it has excellent aging potential and should continue to develop complexity over the next decade or more.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTerralsole’s vineyards span 12 hectares across two distinct sites in Montalcino, each contributing a different dimension to the wine. Pian Bossolino, near the winery and Villa Terralsole on the southeast slope, sits at around 1,200 feet and benefits from cooler temperatures and strong ventilation, promoting slow, even ripening and aromatic finesse. Fonte Lattaia, lower on the southwest slope at about 750 feet, brings structure and richness thanks to its marine sediments and clay soils, helping produce a more stately and concentrated Sangiovese.\n\nAll fruit is estate-grown and hand-harvested, then vinified with a focus on preserving site expression and balance. The result is a Brunello that combines elegance from the cooler vineyard with depth and backbone from the warmer site.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Brunello pairs naturally with mushroom risotto, roasted meats, game, aged cheeses and hearty vegetarian dishes. It is especially well suited to wild boar, pecorino and rich Tuscan-inspired fare. Serve at 16–18°C, and if possible decant for about 1 hour to let the aromas open and the tannins soften.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTerralsole is a small family-owned estate founded in 1996 by veteran winemaker Mario Bollag and his wife Athena Tergis, whose artistic background helped shape the winery’s distinctive philosophy. Their vineyards are known for harmonizing two contrasting terroirs in Montalcino to create wines with both richness and balance. With its estate-grown production and handcrafted approach, Terralsole has earned recognition for producing elegant, expressive Brunello with a strong sense of place.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Terralsole","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54256246882641,"sku":"VRI0507","price":76.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0874\/0614\/9969\/files\/Roedvin-italien-toscana-sangiovese-brunello-di-montalcino-2015-be-happy-special-edition-145-75cl-vinogvelsmag.png?v=1783463143","url":"https:\/\/bottlehero.com\/products\/terralsole-brunello-di-montalcino-2015","provider":"Bottle Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
