2004 Donna Olga Brunello di Montalcino

This is the Centolani familys top wine and Donna Olga is all about quality. The vineyards are located 5 km away from the ancient walls surrounding Montalcino. The vineyards here are terraced, they slope down from a height of 400 to 270 meters above sea level. The grapes coming from the higher blocks present long lasting perfumes and a sizeable content of acidity that grants a long life to the wine; grapes from the lower blocks have a more marked concentration of tannins and polyphenols that give the wine a velvety and more full-bodied structure. This 2004 vintage Donna Olga wine is starting to come to maturity with a good amount of red cherry and wild plum old leather saddle porcini mushrooms and exotic spices and floral. Still a bit tightly wound at the moment but has all the right stuff just needs a bit more time to come together fully but can be enjoyed today and it also has all the right stuff to last another decade or more in your cellar.
