"The 2007 Brunello di Montalcino caresses the palate with expressive layers of dark red cherries, flowers, incense and tobacco. Fine, silky tannins provide the backbone as the wine opens up in the glass. The 2007 boasts gorgeous nuance and definition from start to finish. This is a striking wine from Piancornello. The estate gave the Brunello 36 months in a combination of tonneau and cask .... I was quite taken with the wines I tasted from Piancornello this year. The estate is located in the southern part of Montalcino, where the wines typically show considerable breadth and richness."

Italy grows more indigenous grape varieties than any other country and produces wine in all 20 of its regions. From Piedmont's Nebbiolo to Tuscany's Sangiovese, its finest wines pair structure and bright acidity with a strong sense of place.
The heartland of Sangiovese, producing Chianti Classico, Brunello di Montalcino and the Cabernet-influenced 'Super Tuscans' of the coast. Its wines balance bright acidity, savory structure and cellar-worthiness.
A powerful, age-worthy Sangiovese from the warm hills of Montalcino, requiring extended aging and prized for depth and longevity.
Tuscany's signature red, giving high-acid, savory wines of sour cherry, herbs and firm tannin. It is the backbone of Chianti, Brunello and many Super Tuscans.
