Profile & Story

Montalcino is one-of-a-kind landscape where vineyards, cypresses and grain fields alternate sinuously. No doubt about why it has been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Here Sangiovese Grosso vine has its maximum expression in Brunello di Montalcino. These indigenous grapes usually lend themselves to a late harvest, providing bunches with a high sugar content. The Sangiovese grapes used to produce Brunello di Montalcino DOCG Riserva Bottega are cultivated in a vineyard with vines of 5-25 years old. The aging process is tailor-made: the wine is aged in different kind of casks of different dimensions, to achieve distinctive organoleptic characteristics. Brunello di Montalcino DOCG Riserva is put on the market after 6 years and it is worth every second.
