PRODUCTION AREA: Estate vineyards used for planting the first vineyard resulting from over a decade of research to isolate the optimal selection of clones to produce consistently outstanding Brunello di Montalcino. The vines were planted in 1992. (from 210 to 330 meters above sea level)
GRAPE VARIETIES: Sangiovese, from a combination of estate selected clones.
METHOD OF PRODUCTION: The grape harvest is followed by a maceration of 12-14 days. Temperature-controlled alcoholic fermentation (27-29°C) takes place in the Horizon hybrid stainless steel and wood tanks. 70% of the wine is aged for 3 years in French oak barriques and the remaining 30% in large casks. Before release, only in the sixth year after the harvest, the wine is bottle-aged.
THE WINEMAKER COMMENT: A Brunello born in the estate vineyards that the zonation studies, which started in 1980, identified as the most suitable for Sangiovese. Complex and balanced wine, with intense aromas characterized by hints of plum, cherry and small red fruits. accompanied by balsamic and tobacco notes. In the mouth it is firm and soft. Excellent persistence.
