Libero Brunello di Montalcino - 2019 (750ml)

Libero is a modern expression of Montalcino, crafted for the curious, free-spirited drinker who values both quality and ease, offering a Sangiovese that is as comfortable in a crystal glass as it is shared casually among friends. The newest addition to the Lazzara Family Estate portfolio, founded in 2014 to celebrate the birth of Charles Lazzara’s son Lorenzo, Libero embodies a philosophy of balance, approachability, and authenticity. Sourced from multiple estate vineyards across diverse microclimates, the wine achieves consistency and harmony, with northern high-altitude sites contributing freshness and floral lift, while southern Castelnuovo plots add depth and ripe fruit character. Slightly higher yields ensure exceptional value without sacrificing quality, resulting in a classic yet relaxed Sangiovese that remains a steady, engaging companion—no matter how the night unfolds.

Tasting Notes

Dense, dark red in color, this wine presents powerful, rounded aromas of liquorice and ripe black cherry, leading to a juicy, spicy palate full of dark fruit notes, smooth tannins, and a long-lasting finish.

96 points Wine Enthusiast

Opening earthy aromas of top soil, herbs and coffee grinds roll into notes of vanilla bean and dark berries, before a unifying palate that brings plenty of mixed, juicy berries, plus lots more soil, wild mint, fennel and licorice. Tannins are firm and substantial–a comforting embrace. — Danielle Callegari
