About this product

Refined. Vintage‑worthy. A Brunello elevated through time and tradition.
From the storied hills of Montalcino, Podere San Giacomo’s Brunello Riserva is the pinnacle of their estate craftsmanship. Cultivated on clay-limestone soils at elevated sites, these Sangiovese grapes benefit from long, sunny days and cool nights, developing extraordinary concentration, elegance, and aromatic complexity. Hand-harvested and aged meticulously in large oak barrels for several years, this Riserva is a testament to patience, tradition, and the singular beauty of Brunello terroir.

In the glass, it gleams with a deep garnet-red intensity, releasing a rich bouquet of dark cherries, plum, tobacco, leather, and fine spice, with hints of forest floor and balsamic nuance. On the palate, it is powerful yet refined: layered red and black fruit, silky tannins, and vibrant acidity carry the wine to a long, harmonious finish. Every sip evokes the sunlit slopes, the fragrant hillsides, and the centuries of Tuscan winemaking heritage.

Ideal for slow-cooked game, roasted meats, aged cheeses, or contemplative moments of tasting, this Brunello Riserva brings a sense of occasion and distinction to Irish tables. It’s a wine to savour slowly, one that speaks of place, time, and dedication.
