Our 2016 Brunello di Montalcino wine tasting – Donna Olga
Brunello di Montalcino 2016 – Tenute Donna Olga
Tenute Donna Olga’s Brunello di Montalcino 2016 wine reveals itself in the glass of an impenetrable ruby red color with garnet nuances.
The nose reveals itself austere and fine with notes that bring to mind ripe cherry and blood orange followed by pleasant notes of medicinal herbs, embellished with spicy tones, tobacco and licorice.
Pressing, opulent, harmonious, velvety and well balanced on the palate. Finale of excellent persistence in which the fruity-spicy registers echo.
The malolactic fermentation takes place in 30-hectolitre Allier oak barrels. For refinement, however, after malolactic fermentation, the wine is placed in 30-hectolitre Slavonian oak barrels for 36 months, followed by a further year of aging in the bottle.
Tenute Donna Olga’s Brunello di Montalcino 2016 is one of the most compelling interpretations of Brunello. An imaginative and elegant wine, rich in fruit and balsamic suggestions and sensational taste-olfactory balance. Fully among the best for sincere and territorial character.
