Tassi 2019 Brunello di Montalcino DOCG

Tuscany, Italy – Estate Sangiovese

The Tassi 2019 Brunello di Montalcino DOCG is a refined and elegant expression of Sangiovese, showcasing the balance, freshness, and terroir-driven character that define modern-classic Brunello.

Sourced from estate vineyards in Castelnuovo dell’Abate, on the southeastern slopes of Montalcino, this wine reflects a diverse range of soils including iron-rich clay and galestro, contributing both structure and mineral depth. The 2019 vintage is widely praised for its precision, aromatic clarity, and beautifully integrated tannins.

Fermented with indigenous yeasts in concrete and aged for 24 months in large Slavonian oak casks, this Brunello emphasizes purity and finesse over heaviness.

The nose is expressive and layered, revealing red cherry, black plum, rose petals, and dried herbs, alongside subtle notes of tea, earth, and spice. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied, silky, and vibrant, with finely etched tannins and a refreshing lift. The finish is long and balanced, with lingering notes of wild berries, licorice, and toasted hazelnut.

This is a thoughtfully crafted Brunello—elegant, terroir-focused, and built to evolve gracefully over time.
