Fuligni Brunello di Montalcino 2020

Fuligni Brunello di Montalcino 2020 is an outstanding expression of Sangiovese from one of Montalcino’s highly regarded estates. Elegant and aromatic, it opens with enticing notes of wild berries, ripe Marasca cherry, violets, crushed mint, and forest herbs, complemented by hints of licorice, star anise, and warm spice. The palate is beautifully balanced, combining concentrated red-fruit flavors with vibrant acidity, fine-grained tannins, and remarkable finesse. A long, polished finish highlights the wine’s elegance and complexity. A superb Brunello with excellent aging potential.

Food Pairings: Grilled ribeye, braised short ribs, roasted lamb, wild boar, truffle pasta, or aged Pecorino.
