One of Italy’s legendary wines, Brunello di Montalcino is made with 100 per cent Sangiovese grapes grown in the region of the town of Montalcino in the Tuscany wine region. Brunello di Montalcino was awarded the first Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita designation in 1980 and is now one of Italy's best-known and most expensive wines.
The expansive menu includes such highlights as foie gras “Croccantino”, cherry compote and aged balsamic vinegar; wild boar lasagna with truffles and sweet potato chips; braised Australian lamb with crushed potato, green peas, porcini and coffee sauce; and the chef’s special chocolate extravaganza.
