CALLING ALL BRUNELLO FANS – HERE’S IS AN OFFER YOU WON’T WANT TO MISS!
For those of you who are familiar wth the wonderful full bodied and full flavoured wine from Tuscany’s Montalcino, the Brunello di Montalcino, we have a special offer you’ll want to check out. If on the other hand, you’ve never had these wines, but have always been curious, we have some gems that would be a great inroducionz to this legendary wine.
We asked three of our Brunello producers to go deep into their cellars, and dig up older vintages and large format bottles of their wines. I think we came up with an incredible list, where many of the wines have over a decade of aging on them! Many of these wines are ready to drink in the short to medium term, and then of course, the younger wines (from 2010 and 2011) and large formats (magnums and double magnums) will age for many more years to come.
These three wines are currently in stock, and ready for immediate delivery:
- Fanti Brunello di Montalcino 2011, $67.95 (6/cs) – 93 James Suckling
- Le Ragnaie Brunello di Montalcino 2006, $94.95 (6/cs), 92 Wine Advocate (elegant, traditional style, organic)
- Donatella Cinelli Colombini “IOsonoDONATELLA” Brunello 2010, $249.95 (6/cs) – 1 case left in stock
This wine is in transit, expect to arrive mid June. Only 15 cases available for Ontario:
- Donatella Cinelli Colombini Brunello di Montalcino “Prime Donne” 2011, $89.95 (6/cs) – 93 Wine Spectator
