Returns Simplified.The Salvioni family has been growing Sangiovese grapes for generations, starting in the early 1900s. Thanks to the last descendant, Mr. Giulio Salvioni, this winery also vinifies and bottles Brunello di Montalcino. The first production dates back to 1985.
The ruby red color of a young Brunello attenuates during its evolution leaving hints of light garnet which change as the wine ages. The structure is rich in dry extracts which reach up to 32-33gr/l. Tannins are present but soft with a long finish.
This Brunello is excellent with roasted red meats and skewers of wild game.

The abundant 2019 vintage resulted in Salvioni releasing both a Rosso and Brunello. The latter is a stunning follow-up to the former: restrained yet captivating in its aromatic presentation, chestnut, fragrant wet forest, and underbrush accented by dried heather and juniper. The tannins are commanding and pervasive but roll over the palate gracefully, conferring a tactile, powdery texture. Still understated, this hints at raspberries, currants and black tea, particularly on the long finish. As discreetly compelling as this is now, it will benefit from cellaring and possesses the power for a long stint there.
