Tasting Notes
The Il Marroneto Brunello di Montalcino Madonna delle Grazie 2016 opens with a captivating bouquet of wild cherry, rose petal, blood orange, dried herbs, and crushed stone, evolving toward tobacco leaf, cedar, and fine spice. The palate is elegant yet powerful, delivering layers of red berry, pomegranate, tea leaf, and balsamic notes, wrapped in ultra-fine tannins and vibrant acidity. The balance is impeccable — silky, mineral, and deeply perfumed, finishing with a sensation of energy, purity, and endless length.
Vintage Highlights
The 2016 vintage in Montalcino is widely regarded as a benchmark year — cool nights, warm days, and a long, even growing season produced perfectly balanced Sangiovese. At Il Marroneto, winemaker Alessandro Mori crafted Madonna delle Grazie from vines surrounding the historic church that gives the wine its name. Fermented traditionally in oak vats and aged for over 40 months in large neutral oak casks, this Brunello achieves both classical structure and luminous finesse, embodying the soul of great Montalcino terroir.

The Madonna delle Grazie bottling is the estate’s pinnacle cuvée, made only in exceptional years and representing the essence of Il Marroneto’s philosophy: minimal intervention, expressive terroir, and timeless beauty. The 2016 vintage, awarded a perfect 100 points by Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, is a masterpiece of precision and emotion, destined to evolve gracefully for decades.
