Col d'Orcia Brunello di Montalcino 2007

Col d'Orcia Brunello di Montalcino 2007

Deep ruby red colour. The nose is typical of Sangiovese with marked hints of plum. Intense and ample. The long ageing in the barriques oak leads to a very elegant nuance of species and vanilla. Good structure on the palate, delicate and mature tannins. Lasting aftertaste.

The 2005 Brunello di Montalcino flows with a vibrant core of perfumed red cherries, spices, tobacco and earthiness. Medium in body, the wine reveals outstanding length and a polished, refined finish. The bouquet is not as clean or focused as is usually the case, and the wine will benefit greatly from being opened an hour or two in advance. Drinking now - 2020.

Established in 1933, Col DOrcia is one of the historic names in Montalcino. Today the estate is owned today by Count Francesco Marone Cinzano, whose family bought Col dOrcia in 1973. Col dOrcia has long been celebrated as a producer of monumental Brunelli the iconic Riserva Poggio al Vento is one of the very greatest examples of Brunello yet they also produces some excellent value Sangiovese-based reds (somewhat of a rarity in this region!).
