Salvioni Brunello di Montalcino 2012

Tuscany’s Crown Jewel
Crafted by revered producer Salvioni in Italy’s iconic Brunello di Montalcino region, this 100% Sangiovese masterpiece embodies Tuscan elegance. The challenging 2012 vintage yielded exceptionally concentrated berries, resulting in just 12,000 bottles—a rare treasure for serious collectors.

Critically Acclaimed Excellence
Celebrated with 95-point scores from Decanter and Vinous plus 94 points from Wine Advocate, this vintage unfolds like a symphony. Initial subtlety gives way to layered complexity: imagine wild cherries laced with cinnamon, clove, and whispers of pine forest. The palate enchants with velvety red fruits balanced by saline minerality and refined tannins—all culminating in a dry, perfumed finish kissed by savory spices.

Aging Gracefully
While beautifully approachable now, its structured acidity and powdery tannins promise remarkable evolution over the next decade. Perfect for milestone celebrations or discerning cellars seeking wines that gain depth with time.
