Riedel Vinum : Brunello - Set of 2
 
Brunello di Montalcino is considered to be one of Italy's most prestigious wines. The rules of the DOCG require the wine to spend a minimum of four years in barrels, resulting in flavors which are very different to modern fruit-dominated wines. Even when young, Brunello di Montalcino has an amber color and a surprisingly mature bouquet, somewhat reminiscent of cherries and port. On the palate it is soft and well balanced with firm tannins and a long finish.
This glass, developed with the Consorzio del Vino Brunello di Montalcino, was the first Riedel glass to be officially designed for a wine region. In evaluating different glasses, it was the character of the wine itself which led experts to arrive at the final shape. By fine-tuning Riedel glasses to enhance the wine of a very specific growing area, it is possible to emphasize its typical aromas, taste and harmonious balance.
