Costanti Brunello di Montalcino DOCG
100% Sangiovese. Costanti Brunello di Montalcino is an intense and deep ruby red with an elegant and diverse nose of rose and violet combined with spicy notes of pepper, cinnamon and nutmeg. Excellent structure and very full body. Nice tannins that mesh well with the complex flavors of the wine, even though it is still very young. Intense and persistent aromas on the finish.
“For Costanti Winery, the authenticity of these wines rises above the fleeting trends.“
