Red Wine

Tenuta Buon Tempo Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 'Oliveto' 2015

The “P.56” Riserva is produced only in outstanding years from the point of view of the climate and the quality of the fruit, from a selection of less than 10% of the finest grapes from the oldest vineyards. In some years the wine presents itself for longer ageing and is bottled as a Riserva, in 2018 aging was as standard and this was bottled as a single cru. 

Grape Varietals: 100% Sangiovese

Wine Region: Brunello di Montalcino, Tuscany, Italy 

Tasting Notes: Deep ruby red; expressive aromas of balsamic, morel cherry, and currant. Medium-full with a beautifully defined mid-palate, good acidity, excellent persistence, and elegant, sleek tannins. Gorgeous varietal character, lengthy finish with precise harmony of fruit, tannins and acidity. While this could be enjoyed now with a bistecca fiorentina, this will improve with time, and should peak in 12-20 years. 

Food Pairing: Farfalle with Creamy Truffle Mushroom Sauce
