Fattoria La Lecciaia Brunello di Montalcino Malapetra 2016
Served @ DB's Brunello Tasting
Founded by Mauro Pacini in 1983, Fattoria Lecciaia is an estate that combines traditional practices with modern technology. Located in the Vallafrico area, bordering the oldest and most prestigious vineyards of Montalcino, the estate extends over 60 hectares with vineyards, olive trees and oak trees, with 15 hectares dedicated to the Sangiovese Grosso grape which produces Brunello di Montalcino. Serve this classic Tuscan red with Florentine steaks, rosemary potatoes and sauteed vegetables, or with rich, meaty pasta dishes, or with cured meats and cheeses.
Very attractive aromas of cherries and currants with subtle cedar, mahogany and floral character, following through to a full body with a deep center palate of fruit and creamy, refined tannins that carry through the beautiful finish. Succulent and wonderful. I like the minerally undertone to it. Try after 2023
