The Brunello di Montalcino 'Le Macioche' by Famiglia Cotarella is a label that confirms its position at the top of both national and international critics. Made from pure Sangiovese grapes, with vines over 25 years old in vineyards located about 450 meters above sea level. Harvested strictly by hand, followed by careful vinification, the final aging phase lasts 3 years in large oak barrels. Wild plum and hints of moss and juniper greet the palate, finishing with a clean and deep drink, with an elegant and long sip. A vigorous red that enjoys an important but balanced tannic structure, with a long finish. An unmistakable and unparalleled label for its tone and sincerity, ideal for pairing with classic Tuscan meat dishes.
