Valdicava Madonna del Piano Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 2001, crafted in Italy’s Tuscany, is a pure Sangiovese from a legendary vintage, sourced from the estate’s clay and limestone terroir in Montalcino’s northern sector. The bouquet unveils evolved black cherry, cassis, and plum, with notes of leather, tobacco, and spice, accented by hints of violet and minerality. The palate is full-bodied and opulent, with velvety tannins and vibrant acidity balancing the mature fruit. Aged in large Slavonian oak casks, this wine reflects Valdicava’s traditional winemaking, delivering a long, refined finish with remarkable aging potential. Perfect for pairing with roasted lamb, wild boar, or aged pecorino, it is a collector’s masterpiece, embodying Brunello’s iconic terroir and offering a sophisticated drinking experience for enthusiasts seeking a mature Sangiovese. Its depth and elegance make it a standout from the 2001 vintage.
