Brunello is a red Italian wine produced in the vineyards surrounding the town of Montalcino located about 110 km southwest of Florence in the Tuscany wine region. Brunello, roughly translated as "nice dark one" in the local dialect, is the unofficial name of the clone of Sangiovese (also known as Sangioverosso grown in the Montalcino region. In 1980, the Brunello di Montalcino was awarded the first Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita (DOCG) designation and today is one of Italy's best-known and most expensive wines. Our next event in February is the 2001 vintage of Brunello di Montalcino and as you will read in the attached notice, the 2001 vintage was a huge success producing delicious traditional Brunello that is rich and full with gripping tannins.
