2018
Brunello di Montalcino DOCG
100% Sangiovese
Tenuta Nuova 2018 presents a young and intense ruby red. On the nose it expresses notes of small ripe red fruits and its inevitable balsamicity. On the palate it is striking for its great complexity: it is rich and delicate, enveloping and tasty. The ending, fascinating and long, suggests a great future.
2018 was characterized by a very cold winter, whose harsh temperatures led to a delay in budding of about a week compared to the average of previous years. Spring was characterized by abundant rainfall. Flowering occurred in the last week of May. The summer, initially cool, continued with higher temperatures in June and July but never reached excessive peaks. The strong temperature variations between day and night in the days before the harvest favored a slow and constant ripening of the grapes.
Manual, September 2018
