About the wine
From the estate's one hectare on the famous Montosoli hill just north of Montalcino town. A vineyard known for delivering Sangiovese with a particularly mineral – almost salty – character, which complements the grape's tart cherry fruit superbly. The parcel is located at about 300 meters altitude with eastern exposure, contributing to the wine's vibrancy and finesse.
The wine is intense and nuanced with preserved cherries, dried plum, tobacco, and licorice, supplemented by earthy notes, truffle, orange peel, and a hint of tar. The tannins are sandy and precise, and the whole balances grandeur and elegance convincingly.
It is a Brunello with both depth and structure for long aging, but also with a clarity and energy that already shows why Montosoli is considered among Montalcino's very best vineyards.
The vinification follows the estate's uncompromising line with natural yeast, fermentation in concrete, and long maceration before the wine ages 36 months in large Slavonian botti.
