"La Fortuna" storical small- medium wine producer, this year appears on the shelves  of wine stores with new label and usual great wine. Producer has chosen traditional old style label for its Brunello di Montalcino 2007 and Rosso di Montalcino 2010. Brunello riserva keeps the old label. 

Our regular wine store guests already knows this producer for its spectacular Brunello 2006 with its floral and berry aromas, very elegant with long after taste ( Wine Spectator score 94). Brunello 2006 is recommended to drink starting from 2013.

Brunello 2007 is very fruity and round one as well, described by James Suckling as " plum pie and flowers; full body, with lovely ripe fruit and velvety tannins. So gorgeous and generous..." (J.S. score 90)

Balanced, powerful wine with bright fruits describes its Riserva 2001. Brunello Riserva more recent years still need some aging.
