Here is a big wine with lofty ambitions and an impactful presentation. The Valdicava 2010 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Madonna del Piano hits all the right buttons. The wine shows a profound sense of elegance and poise with subtle berry notes that blend into spice, licorice and tar. Those bright and lively aromatic components fold gracefully within the wine's tight texture, its sheer power and the silky nature of the tannins. This wine promises a long and steady aging future ahead. <br/>
Producer
Valdicava
Along the foothills of Montalcino, among the leading producers of the region, the Valdicava estate is idyllically-situated, crafting extraordinary wines year after year. The 10-hectare property has been used to produce wine since 1953, when Bramante Abbruzzese followed his family’s sharecropper roots back to this very plot. Valdicava is actually the name of the valley where the estate has their best holdings. These parcels, the Madonna del Piano, Montosoli, La Casa and Vigna del Lago produce the greatest single-vineyard Brunellos. Today, the winery is managed by his grandson, Vincenzo Abbruzzese. With major renovations made in both the vineyards and cellar, he has transformed Valdicava into one of leading Brunello di Montalcino producers. Characterized by their infinite balance between body and aroma, the wines are nurtured by traditional values and produced using the latest technologies. The exclusive cultivation of the Sangiovese variety, blended with the forward dedicated thinking of Vincenzo, has led to Valdicava’s unrivaled productions of Brunello di Montalcino.
