Valdicava (Vincenzo Abbruzzese) Brunello di Montalcino 2016

The Winery

Valdicava

Located in the north of Montalcino, Tuscany, Valdicava wine estate produces some of the highest quality wines in the world by showing different expressions of the opulent Sangiovese grape. The warming sensation from the nearby Tirrean Sea, the protective barrier of the “Monte Amiata”, the cooling breezes of surrounding wooded forests along with moderate rain fall facilitate the particularly unique growth of the Valdicava grapes.

The Brunello-focused estate has given their absolute attention to the vines to produce a great balance of body and aroma, making every bottle a treasured collectible. The hard work and attention to the details in the terroir is evident for the consumers of any Valdicava, now and for years to come.

Summary

The Valdicava Brunello di Montalcino 2016 showcases the elegance of Sangiovese from a prestigious estate in Tuscany, renowned for its organic farming practices and low yields. This vintage, acclaimed for its quality, presents enticing aromas of crushed cherries, strawberries, and plums, enhanced by notes of clove, spiced orange peels, and mint. The wine is full-bodied with fine, reserved tannins and a polished texture, integrating a mineral backbone with subtle hints of savory herbs and floral elements. It exhibits impressive length and complexity, with potential for further development over the next decade, thanks to its structured and classic profile.
