This Brunello is full-bodied and dense, yet kept upright by fresh acidity, fine minerality and ripe, firm tannins. The structured tannin needs animal fat to grip onto, so choose juicy, ideally slow-roasted or braised meat, where the tannins are softened and the wine gains extra complexity. The lively acidity and the dark herbal and blood-orange tones suit dishes with rosemary, thyme and a little tomato, just as robust cheese meets the wine as an equal in intensity.

About the wine

A deep ruby red and more powerful wine compared to wine from their other vineyards.

The wine appears both full-bodied and dense, yet simultaneously upright and elegant with a beautiful minerality – a result of the white marl soils that characterize the southeastern part of Montalcino.

On the nose, it opens like a harmonious symphony of balanced aromas, where blood orange and fresh Mediterranean herbs stand out clearly.

The taste is juicy, lively, and complex, and the wine tells a story that only becomes more interesting over time as more layers of its personality unfold.

Fermentation and maceration for 50 days in large open oak barrels. 24 months of aging in large barrels followed by 18 months in cement and a minimum aging of 12 months in the bottle.
