Tasting Notes
Intense ruby red colour. Decisive bouquet with notes of ripe red fruits complemented by a good spicy component. On the palate it is warm, soft and full; structured with well-present but velvety and non-aggressive tannins. Good persistence.
About the Silvio Nardi Estates
The Silvio Nardi estates boast 36 vineyards in an intact landscape environment
and in a biologically natural habitat, indispensable prerequisites for the enhancement of each individual terroir.
Tenute Silvio Nardi consists of 80 hectares of vineyards in an unspoiled part of central Tuscany: Montalcino, whose symbol is its great red wine, Brunello. Silvio Nardi founded the estate here at Casale del Bosco; since 1985 it has been run by his youngest daughter, Emilia.
Emilia Nardi knows she can depend on Casale's special and distinctive territory to produce a contemporary and elegant Brunello. She has invested single-mindedly in the vineyards in this harmonious natural setting - as any tasting of her fine wines will attest. Each of her signature wines expresses the differing character of Sangiovese when it is grown at Montalcino.
The estate's vineyards are situated between 140 and 420 meters above sea level: some extend north-west of Montalcino on the hills around Casale del Bosco, while others are located to the north of it at Tenuta di Bibbiano and to the south-east at Manachiara, where the precious cru of the same name originates.
