Tasting Notes

Beautiful ruby red in color with bold earthy aromas of ripe cherry and raspberry, framed by notes of leather and crushed herb. Fleshy and full on the palate, the bold dark fruit flavors include subtle spice notes. This Tuscan blend is made in steel barrels with a 6-8 month process in oak barrels. Aged a minimum of 1 years from harvest, prior to market. 40% Sangiovese, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot

Estate

Purchased by Mr. Mauro Pacini in 1983 and upgraded with the most advanced winemaking installations, Fattoria la Lecciaia is a wine estate that combines a young, dynamic approach to the wine business, while strictly adhering to the antique traditions of Brunello di Montalcino. Located in “località Vallafrico” and surrounded by the vineyards of some of the most iconic estates of the area, the estate is in the center of the original micro-terroir where the world-famous Brunello di Montalcino was first produced.
