Benvenuto Brunello 2013


We  didn't miss  the presentation of the new Brunello wine, in Montalcino, even the snow couldn't stop the three of us 




so outside the snow and inside the wine....






 the presentation of  the  2008  Brunello, pure San Giovese grapes, minimum aged 5 years, was inside a XII century monastery, the wine tasting was in the cloister of an old convent





As many experts confirm, the 2008 was not an easy year because there was an alternation of warm and cold climate so that the 2008  brunello is easier to drink, with structure, tannins, perfumes,  an easier Brunello than  the other years, less powerful less pretentious, but  much more elegant.

and after the  wine tasting, a good buffet in a gorgeous, frescoed medieval castle ...  slurp!
