The 2019 Palazzo Brunello di Montalcino Cosimo is produced with a selection of grapes from the estate's highest and richest vineyard in marl, this is an intense ruby wine with sparkling garnet notes. It has a particularly seductive and complex nose: notes of woodland and undergrowth, medicinal herbs, but also of red roses, spices and small ripe red fruits. On the palate it is refined and elegant, then more powerful and concentrated, with perfect minerality, freshness and a never unpleasant acidity. A very long, persistent, memorable wine. A Brunello dedicated to the memory of the founder Cosimo Loia, who strongly believed in the potential of the vineyards in the this land of Montalcino. The grapes for this wine are harvested directly from the first vineyard planted by Cosimo himself in 1985 - Today we call that vineyard “Vigna Vecchia". This wine has garnered great reviews earning 94 points from Vinous and Wine Enthusiast. In 1982, Cosimo Loia and Antonietta Palazzo, captivated by Montalcino, visited various estates before finding the place of their dreams: a 12-hectare hillside estate with a 17th-century farmhouse, looking out like a belvedere over the spectacular Val d'Orcia; later recognised as a Unesco World Heritage Site. It was also a sign of fate, the company was called Palazzo: like Antonietta's surname. It was immediately clear to them that they would become wine producers and, driven by passion and with farsightedness, they bought the rights to plant Brunello di Montalcino grapes on an area of 5 hectares. In 1985 they planted the Sangiovese Grosso vines destined for the Brunello, which they began to vinify in 1990, first as Rosso di Montalcino, with the help of their children. Then in 1994, when the vines reached the nine years of age necessary for the grapes to ripen properly, they finally celebrated the first harvest of Brunello di Montalcino.
