Castello Tricerchi Brunello di Montalcino 2021

Aged for more than 2 years in durmast casks, this Brunello expresses the character and nobility of the hand-harvested grapes from the Vigna del Castello and the Vigna del Velo. From one of the most important vintages of the decade, great ageing potential is combined here with an already appealing drinkability, characteristic of the Tricerchi style. A beautifully poised Brunello from the exceptional 2021 vintage, with vibrant red cherry, raspberry and wild herbs alongside warm spice and earthy complexity. Fresh acidity and fine-grained tannins give the wine energy, balance and length, while savoury notes of tobacco and cedar add depth.

The Castello Tricerchi Estate is situated on the northern side of Montalcino. Thirteen of the 400 hectares are covered with Brunello di Montalcino and Rosso di Montalcino vineyards. In the centre of the Estate stands the eponymous castle which was built in the
13th Century by the Altesi family and completed by the Tricerchi family in 1441; now it serves as both winery and home to their direct descendants, the Squarcia family.
