Tenuta La Fuga Brunello di Montalcino

La Fuga is in the region of Montalcino, whose borders delineate the zone of Brunello di Montalcino DOCG. The vineyards are situated at 400 meters in elevation southwest of the town of Montalcino. The region’s vineyards are sheltered by Mount Amiata and kept dry by sea breezes from across the hills to the west. Densely planted vineyards produce low average yields, allowing wines with concentration, complexity and considerable aging potential. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel vats at a controlled temperature, then the wine is macerated in steel vats before malolactic fermentation takes place. The wine is aged in large Slavonian oak casks and in bottle before release Tasting notes: Very complex and fine aromas that delicately and constantly come out and increase. On the palate this wine is balanced, austere and powerful with a very persistent finish and soft tannins. Pairs well with: Meat, game and aged cheeses.
