Product Details

blackberry • rosemary • spice
Founded in 1978 by Italian-American brothers John and Harry Mariani, Castello Banfi is located on the sun-drenched slopes of lower Montalcino in Tuscany. Year after year, their methodology yields polished, ageworthy expressions of Sangiovese that are beloved by critics, and the 2012 release is no exception:

92 Points Wine Advocate “Castello Banfi's 2012 Brunello di Montalcino...faithfully reflects the warmth of the vintage thanks to aromas of plump cherry, blackberry, spice, grilled herb and rosemary. The bouquet offers a very Mediterranean quality that is saturated, rich and succulent. This expression offers respectable dimension and depth. Eighty percent of the wine is aged in botte grande and the rest goes into French barrique for two years. Drink now through 2026.”

Brunello di Montalcino is one of Italy’s most profound and sought-after wines, and Banfi Sangiovese's 2012 bottling is sure to make a big impression on anyone who appreciates the finer things in life.
