2019 Brunello di Montalcino DOCG 'Vigna Marrucheto', Banfi Your Store

2019 Brunello di Montalcino DOCG 'Vigna Marrucheto', Banfi

Brunello di Montalcino, Tuscany, Italy

The Vigna Marrucheto single vineyard is viewed as ‘Grand Cru’ in Brunello and is the jewel in the Banfi crown.

Intense ruby red in colour, the nose is powerful and rich, showing great freshness and vitality. Sensory complexity is evident in the rich, fruity profile of red fruit notes such a blackberry and ripe cherry that combine with Mediterranean hints of carob and figs. Spicy notes of counter pepper and bay leaves emerge on the finish. The body is full, the tannins silky and well integrated. The harmonious and balanced finish makes the wine unique and with great personality

Founded in 1978 by the vision of Italian-American brothers John and Harry Mariani, Banfi represents a marriage of winemaking passion and technological innovation. Through collaboration with Ezio Rivella, one of Italy’s most eminent winemakers, the land purchased in Montalcino was transformed into a crucible of quality and potential. The acquisition of the historic Piedmontese winery Bruzzone subsequently further enriched the portfolio, integrating the wine tradition of Piedmont into the Banfi world. Banfi has obtained the Equalitas certification both at the organisational and product levels. ‘We see a global and connected world, where differences are prosperity. The products of our land, to be defended and enhanced, are the best expression of human labour and ingenuity’. ‘Always pioneers, we value research and people, respecting the territories in which we work. For a better wine world.’ Cristina Mariani-May – third family generation and CEO of Banfi.

Fermentation in temperature-controlled (25-30°C) Horizon hybrid French oak and stainless-steel tanks followed by ageing for a minimum of 30 months in 60 and 90 hl French oak casks.
