GRAPES
Sangiovese
The Rosso del Palazzone is a blend of different vintages , so we may not put a year on the label. The wine is produced with Sangiovese grapes and is an authentic expression of Tuscan terroir. Whenever possible, we declassify a portion of our Brunello to be blended with the Vino Rosso barrels to result in greater complexity.
Born of our desire to return to the tradition of “Il vino di tutti i giorni” - a wine for everyday, our Rosso, a very pleasing wine of great drinkability revisits the ideas of the old customs of wine and food of the people in Tuscany and Montalcino.
This wine is fresh and fruity, yet expresses all of the elegance and energy of Sangiovese.
PLEASE NOTE
Very limited quantities of other vintages may be available from our library collection. If you are interested in a specific vintage or wine that you do not see on the website, please contact us at info@ilpalazzone.com with any inquiries or requests.
Brunello di Montalcino DOCG
Brunello di Montalcino DOCG is vinified with 100% Sangiovese grapes, with no blending of other varietals allowed, to protect the purity of the expression of this unique varietal and terroir. Typically deep garnet in color with aromas of red fruit, chocolate, violet and herbs with tobacco and earth increasing with age, our Il Palazzone Brunellos are full-bodied yet translucent, with ABV around 13.5-14.5%. The strong smooth tannins and ripe fruit balance brightness and acidity to deliver a perfect wine for food pairing, and the structure and depth provide the ability to enjoy whether drinking young or after some aging.
Brunello di Montalcino Vigna Le Due Porte DOCG
Vigna Le Due Porte is produced with grapes harvested exclusively from our cru vineyard, 1.4 special hectares surrounding the cellar at 540 metres above sea level. The synergy of the pietraforte soil, 25-year-old vines, tramontana winds and western sun come together to deliver grapes of exceptional character and quality. Vinified to exemplify the traditional structure of a Brunello vecchio stampo, this noble wine is the true expression of finesse and elegance, crafted to drink deliciously right away as well as to evolve perfectly over the next decade and beyond thanks to its strong, smooth tannins and well-balanced acidity.
