A highly involved collector who acquired the wine in his cellar over many years. Sourced from negotiants, LCBO vintages releases and agencies, all wines were stored in a home cellar equipped with a state-of-the-art cooling and humidification system. A photo of his cellar is included in the gallery.
Producer Notes for 2002 Castello Banfi Brunello di Montalcino DOCG - Brunello di Montalcino was Italy's first wine to be accorded D.O.C.G. status, a testament to its aristocracy, balance and fabulous proclivity for aging. Under the direction of Banfi's master winemakers, Sangiovese grapes are transformed into a remarkable world-class wine, perhaps the most respected red of Italy. Aged for a total of up to four years, including a minimum of two years in oak barrels, Castello Banfi Brunello di Montalcino is a wine of robust character. It possesses a rich garnet color, and a depth, complexity and opulence that is softened by an elegant, lingering aftertaste. Castello Banfi Brunello di Montalcino's regal qualities are best exhibited with game, red meats, roasts, hearty stews and rich powerful cheeses such as Parmigiano Reggiano.
