2017 Donatella Cinelli Colombini Brunello di Montalcino

Donatella Cinelli Colombini manages 33 hectares of vineyards in Tuscany, meticulously cultivated under the organic regime and tended to by hand. These vineyards, divided into two estates, have been in her family for over 400 years. Donatella, preparing her daughter Violante as the business's heir, made a significant move in 2010 by appointing Valérie Lavigne as the winemaker, assembling the first all-female team at an Italian winery. By 2018, all of Donatella Cinelli Colombini's wines achieved organic certification, marking the culmination of a lengthy conversion process and emphasizing the winery's commitment to respecting nature.

A refined Brunello that is vivid ruby red in colour with an aroma that reveals distinct notes of red fruits and spices. It possesses an elegant, full, harmonious palate that is both soft and enduring culminating in a pleasingly prolonged finish.
