When a successful New York financier travels to the heart of Italy to make Brunello—the most complex, long lasting and celebrated form of Sangiovese—eyebrows raise and bets are placed. Richard Parsons, the Chairman of Citigroup, has not only proved any detractors wrong, his wine has earned an impressive string of accolades. Powerful, voluptuous and smooth, this wine shows notes of dark fruit, fresh coffee and bay leaf. Save it for a special dinner and serve it with something equally robust, like a standing rib roast. It goes equally well with a good old hamburger.

Varietals:100% Sangiovese Grosso, or Brunello
Nose:Dark fruit, fresh coffee and smoke
Palate:Black cherry, tobacco and bay leaf
Alcohol:13.8%
Appellation:Brunello di Montalcino DOCG

We Love This With

For a showstopper like this savory and luscious Brunello, we say you serve a beautiful cut of meat to match like a prime rib roast. Find a roast that's been crafted and aged as carefully as this bottle.  With the traditional sides like herb-spiked roasted potatoes and simply steamed, buttered greens, this wine shines.  Not ready to pour a glass?  Rest assured this Brunello will age beautifully in your cellar.
