Vigna Colombaiolo Brunello di Montalcino DOCG 2019 - Tassi

Why the winemaker recommends Tassi Vigna Colombaiolo Brunello di Montalcino DOCG 2019

Simply amazing, I love this wine so much. All Brunello Tassi are single vineyard. The Colombaiolo vineyard is higher, the fermentation is in oak (rather than in steel). Aged in medium sized oak barrels (no large barrels or small barriques) for 24 months. 5 years before release. Sangiovese wine intensely aromatic and ready to explode out of the glass. The oak made this wine round and provided a slightly fuller body than the others. The acidity is high and provides a great balance. Highly recommended wine!

Characteristics of Giuseppe Tassi Colombaio red wine

Colombaiolo it's fantastic single vineyard Brunello di Montalcino by Giuseppe Tassi. How can it reach a further level of complexity? The earthy nose is very intense and fruitier with black cherry, blackcurrant, beautiful oak, mushrooms, leather, tar and cinnamon. Soft and powerful on the palate with pure balanced acidity and constructive dry tannins, moving, long finish.
