Note di degustazione
Made with certified-organic fruit, the La Magia 2017 Brunello di Montalcino reveals the ripeness and robust flavors that come naturally in this hot and dry vintage. That ripeness is well managed, and it appears as textural softness and creaminess more than anything else. Sangiovese's characteristic acidity keeps the wine from feeling heavy, and the palate is accented by cherry confit, Spanish cedar, cola and wild rose. The finish is a bit abrupt and simple.

Lustrous ruby. Savoury and balsamic and still a little subdued on the nose. Generous is the keyword with soft, concentrated fruit on the palate. Long and with bags of fruit. (WS)
Sweet roses, lavender, blood orange, raspberry preserves and hints of camphor waft up from the 2017 Brunello di Montalcino. This is soft and fleshy upon entry, but it quickly gains a tactile grip, as a mix of tart wild berries, minerals and exotic spices penetrates deeply. That said, there’s plenty of vibrant acidity to balance as it enlivens the experience through the finale, where hints of black tea come together with candied citrus and cherry pits to form a long, lightly structured yet ultimately mouthwatering finale. Nicely done. In 2017, yields were down by a whopping 40% to maintain integrity. The winery also chose to add 600-liter tonneaux into the mix of their typical 500-liter barrels to help maintain freshness. The end result is a highly successful 2017 Brunello.
