The Canalicchio di Sopra Brunello di Montalcino DOGC Magnum 1.5L 2016 is a wine that deserves high praise. The vibrant and ethereal expression is simply stunning, with ripe black cherries accompanied by hints of sage, cedar, and allspice, grounded by moist earth tones. The wine has a noticeable inner sweetness with hints of blackberry fruit, and it is focused and pure, all cast across a silky, feminine frame. The structure of the wine builds like a crescendo, as minerals fade to youthful tannins, and juicy acids maintain perfect balance from start to finish, resulting in a surprisingly fresh expression with amazing length.
The Canalicchio di Sopra Brunello di Montalcino DOGC Magnum 1.5L 2016 is a magnum-sized bottle, which holds 1.5 litres of wine, double the standard wine bottle size of 750ml. The magnum bottle size has many benefits, including slower aging due to a smaller ratio of air to wine, resulting in a more graceful development of the wine's flavour profile. Additionally, the magnum bottle's larger size enhances the wine's appearance and makes it a perfect choice for sharing with friends and family at special events.
