Description and technical sheet
The Brunello di Montalcino Madonna delle Grazie by Il Marroneto is made from 100% Sangiovese Grosso grapes, cultivated on the northern slope of the Montalcino wine region (SI). The namesake vineyard, trained in the cordone speronato method, is situated on sea sand-rich soils, abundant in minerals, at an altitude of approximately 400 meters above sea level. The entire winemaking process took place in Allier oak vats, with a maximum temperature of 30°C. The alcoholic fermentation lasted for 20-22 days. The aging process was 41 months in 25-hectoliter oak barrels. This masterpiece red is the flagship of Il Marroneto, widely considered one of the most memorable expressions of Brunello.
BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO MADONNA DELLE GRAZIE IL MARRONETO: TASTING NOTES
The Brunello di Montalcino Madonna delle Grazie by Il Marroneto displays a deep garnet red color with bright reflections. On the nose, it opens with aromas of marasca and ripe red fruits, followed by notes of violet potpourri and hints of balsamic herbs and dark spices. The aromatic profile is completed by undertones of underbrush, tobacco, and coffee powder. On the palate, the wine is profound and enveloping, supported by silky tannins and elegant minerality that persist in a long and unforgettable balsamic and spicy finish. It pairs well with aged cheeses and savory dishes featuring red meats or game.
