Piombaia, Brunello di Montalcino 2016 Caparzo tea leaf and orange peelA biodynamic Brunello from one of the higher located wineries in Montalcino, featuring an elegant, classic Sangiovese character. Intense, full bodied and elegant with notes of red and black berries and wild plums, intertwined with hints of cloves, thyme and cedar oak. The taste is impressive, full and persistent with ripe, silky tannins and an elegant acidity, leading towards a delicately spicy, long lasting finish.
