The Terre Nere Brunello di Montalcino 2016 is a stunning expression of Tuscany, scoring a well-deserved 95 points. This magnum showcases the region’s unique terroir, where the Sangiovese grapes thrive in the sun-drenched hillsides, imparting layers of ripe cherry, dried herbs, and a hint of leather. On the palate, it reveals a harmonious balance of vibrant acidity and velvety tannins, culminating in a long, elegant finish. This wine is perfect for a celebratory dinner, especially when paired with a rich osso buco or aged pecorino cheese. With its exceptional quality, it’s a smart buy that offers remarkable value for a Brunello of this caliber.
