The Story
Castello Romitorio Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is an ultra-premium, long-aged expression produced only in the most exceptional vintages. It is crafted from a rigorous selection of the estate's oldest and finest Sangiovese vines. This wine represents the pinnacle of the winery's structural power and longevity, requiring a total of six years of aging before it can be released to the market.
On the nose, it offers a profound and evolving bouquet of dried marasca cherries, forest floor, and crushed violets, seamlessly layered with sophisticated notes of leather, iron, and balsamic herbs. The palate is full-bodied and monumental, showcasing a dense core of dark fruit supported by a massive yet refined framework of fine-grained tannins. The finish is exceptionally long and resonant, characterized by a persistent mineral tension and complex tertiary notes of tobacco and spice.
