TENUTA LA FUGA BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO DOCG 2017

750ml

Country: Italy

Region: Tenuta La Fuga southwest of Montalcino, on the historical side of Camigliano

Grape Varietal: 100% Sangiovese

Tasting Notes: The 2017 vintage is characterised by hints of berries, orange peel, flowers and cedar but also walnut and wet leaves. A full-bodied wine with firm and velvety tannins and a juicy texture on the palate. A concentrated taste and a long length. Reviews:

92PTS, James Suckling

Lots of ripe-cherry and sandalwood aromas with hints of fresh spices. Medium body, round tannins and a savory finish. Plummy. Drink or hold.

RP92, Robert Parker

Tenuta la Fuga is part of a larger group of wine estates in Tuscany (Ambrogio & Giovanni Folonari) that makes textbook wines that reflect their region of origin. This can be said of the 2017 Brunello di Montalcino that does not color outside the predetermined lines for a Sangiovese from Montalcino. With fruit from a hot vintage, the wine shows cassis and dark currant aromas with some dried herbs and crushed flowers. It delivers a pretty mineral note on the polished finish. Production is 22,000 bottles.
