Colleoni Brunello di Montalcino Santa Maria 2015 is a prestigious Italian red wine from the renowned Brunello di Montalcino wine region in Tuscany. This wine is made entirely from Sangiovese grapes, also known locally as Brunello, which are carefully selected from the Santa Maria vineyard, one of the oldest and most distinguished vineyards in the region.

Colleoni grows organic Sangiovese in less-heeled areas of Montalcino that he has identified as top terroirs. This is one great example: it tastes like the Gang of Four might have given him a tip or two on his vinification. Expect ripe Sangiovese fruit with a streak of bitter cherry and a pleasant dusting of Tuscan tannin.

Intense garnet color, the nose expresses hints of ripe fruit, then nuances of tobacco, anise and cloves. In the mouth it is deep, with an elegant and powerful tannic texture and a long persistence.
