Description
2018
Brunello di Montalcino DOCG
100% Sangiovese
Translucent bright red. On the nose it is attractive and fascinating, with the freshness of the 2018 vintage fully revealed followed by notes of nutmeg and young red fruit. On the palate the first impact is decisive, generous and controlled. Balance reigns supreme in the mouth, where the tannic texture balances perfectly with the acidity and allows you to enjoy this wine already in its youth.
2018 was characterized by a very cold winter, whose harsh temperatures led to a delay in budding of about a week compared to the average of previous years. Spring was characterized by abundant rainfall. Flowering occurred in the last week of May. The summer, initially cool, continued with higher temperatures in June and July but never reached excessive peaks. The strong temperature variations between day and night in the days before the harvest favored a slow and constant ripening of the grapes.
Manual, first week of October
Manual selection of bunches before destemming and selection of berries with optical selector. Spontaneous fermentation follows without the use of added yeasts and maceration aided by frequent punching down. Everything takes place in truncated cone-shaped steel vats at a controlled temperature for 25 days.
