The red wine from this vintage follows this strict tradition, based on a high proportion of Sangiovese, complemented by other authorized red grape varieties from the consortium. The climatically exceptional year of 1997 was characterized by intense heat and periods of drought, leading to concentrated grape development and a shortened growing season. The subsequent oak aging structured the alcohol framework, while the subsequent bottle aging softened the polyphenols.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDuring tasting, the wine reveals itself to be in an advanced stage of maturity with a wide spectrum of tertiary aromas. In addition to nuances of leather, smoky tobacco notes, and dried herbs, ripe cherry and plum tones emerge on the palate, gently combining with sandy minerality. The tannins have become completely mellow, creating a velvety texture, flanked by stable acidity. The long finish lingers persistently on the palate. It is recommended to pair with roasted game, aged hard cheeses, mushroom dishes, or traditional meat ragouts, where the pronounced spiciness perfectly balances the wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Castello di Brolio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54406232375634,"sku":null,"price":39.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0925\/9460\/2322\/files\/4622_12114f328405.jpg?v=1787776853","url":"https:\/\/vinosas.com\/en\/products\/castello-di-brolio-castello-di-brolio-1997","provider":"VINOSAS","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
