Marroneto, Brunello di Montalcino, Madonna Grazie 2010

Marroneto

Case Format: 6x75cl

On the background of the vineyards of Il Marroneto, the towers of the city of Siena are visible, and they frame a unique landscape and one of the most important places in the Montalcino region. Everything started with Giuseppe Mori in 1974, when he planted the first three thousand metres of vineyards, which doubled by 1979, and reached nine thousands by 1984. Nowadays, it is Alessandro Mori who continues the work started by his father more than forty years ago. Amongst the rows, the vines are minimally treated, avoiding intensive production, every plant has 3,6 square metres to root properly. The management of the vineyards is in the complete harmony with the environment, nature, ecosystem and biodiversity, following the rhythms and changing of the seasons. The main objective of the firm is to manufacture wines that are of the highest quality.

CRITIC REVIEWS

Monica Larner

The purest and most profound expression of Sangiovese on the market today, the 2010 Brunello di Montalcino Madonna delle Grazie is a monumental achievement. It represents the pinnacle of varietal perfection from one of the best vintages on record in Montalcino. The wine opens to a beautifully saturated ruby color with vibrant crimson highlights. It shows an enormous sense of inner energy and vitality characteristic only of the best quality grapes. It continues to deliver crisp tones of small forest berry, pressed violets, wet earth, white truffle, licorice, balsam herb and all the other lovely aromas that are so distinctive in wines from this stunning part of Tuscany. The tannins are firm and linear, adding a great sense of support at the back and lingering persistency. The wine is profoundly beautiful today and shows all the criteria necessary for 20 years or more of cellar aging. Brunello Madonna Delle Grazie represents the enormous promise of Montalcino.

Fabulous aromas of dried orange peel, smoke, cherry, and hints of cream. Its full body, with soft and silky tannins and a long and intense finish. Long and very pretty. Very balanced. Drink or hold.
