Country: Italy / Tuscany
Variety: Sangiovese Grosso
Winery: Il Marroneto / Selezione Madonna delle Grazie
This Brunello Selezione epitomizes the clean, polished and easygoing style of the 2008 vintage. The wine shows a savory side with aromas of cured meat and dried herb, as well as a bold fruit side with plush cherry and blackberry. The acidity is high, but is also balanced out by its natural density and rich texture.
