From the Campogiovanni winery in Montalcino, Tuscany and made with the Sangiovese grape. This is a good Brunello with aromas of forest, leather, game and berry. There’s very nice purity and intensity here and the wine showcases layers of red fruit, plum, spice, leather and rose petal. The silky and smooth mouth feel would work with meat dishes or hearty pasta. Leave this wine for an hour in a decanter and it blooms into a fantastically fragrant and intense example of high quality Brunello.
Price: Approximately €35 a bottle.
