The Wines (3 Pack Mixed Case):
2 bottle Rosso di Montalicno DOC, 2022, LA FORTUNA, TUSCANY, ITALY:
100% Sangiovese. With 5 generations of experience, the Zannoni arrived at La Fortuna in 1907. The entire complex has been designed in such a way to preserve the original beauty of the renovated Tuscan farmhouse and to respect the tradition while adapting to the new needs of winemaking. Bright, fruity, with light tannins and a clean finish. 100% Sangiovese. Aged 9 months in Slovanian oak barels, 6 months in French barriques, then 4 months in bottle. It opens on the nose with powerful fruity and spicy notes. Garnet-red in color. Maintains an articulate gustatory pleasantness, with a full and austere flavor, velvety and soft.
1 bottle Brunello di Montalicno DOCG, 2019, LA FORTUNA, TUSCANY, ITALY:
100% Sangiovese Grosso. What all brunellos aspire to be! Aged 40 months in Slavonian oak barrels, then another 9 months in bottle before going out to market. Notes of Morello cherry dipped in chocolate, mint and violet. Ruby red colour. Medium-bodied, with a long aromatic persistence.
