Tasting Notes

The celebrated single-vineyard Manapetra is a fabulous effort in the exciting vintage. Showing a wonderful sensory profile, it releases lovely aromas of raspberries, currants and cherries complimented by fresh ginger and lemon peel. The palate is full-bodied with gorgeous tannins that are beautifully integrated. It continues to display excellent balance and it heads into the finish full of energy and character. Fantastic now, but should also evolve gracefully over the next decade and beyond.

Soil

Medium loam with sand and same argillaceous deposit.

Vinification

In steel tanks with controlled temperature for 15/20 days.

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.
