2019 MARRONETO BRUNELLO MADONNA
Description
The 2019 Il Marroneto Brunello di Montalcino Madonna delle Grazie is a profoundly elegant and site-driven expression from one of the appellation’s most revered single vineyards. Produced only in exceptional vintages, this wine captures the purity of Sangiovese grown on the higher-elevation soils near the Madonna delle Grazie church. The 2019 vintage offers a beautifully lifted aromatic profile, with notes of wild red cherry, dried rose, blood orange, and subtle alpine herbs, layered with hints of tobacco, crushed stone, and sweet spice.
On the palate, the wine is remarkably refined and precise, showcasing silken tannins, vibrant acidity, and a striking sense of balance. Flavors of sour cherry, pomegranate, and red currant unfold gradually, supported by earthy undertones and a long, mineral-driven finish. Both powerful and graceful, the 2019 Madonna delle Grazie is a Brunello of exceptional finesse and longevity, rewarding patience while already offering a glimpse of its profound depth and character.
