Questo vino

Vineyard and terroir

The vines grow at 300 metres in the coolest parts of Montalcino, on soils composed of clay, sand and limestone. Vincenzo Abbruzzese has avoided chemical treatments since the late 1980s and follows biodynamic farming practices. Yields are sharply reduced, and the fruit is harvested carefully by hand.

Grapes

The wine uses selected Sangiovese Grosso fruit from the same selection used for the estate’s Brunello.

Ageing

The wine rests for one year in oak barrels.

Tasting profile

The 2022 vintage combines power with elegance. It is structured, with red-fruit notes, firm tannins and lively acidity.

Serving and pairing

Decant for at least one hour before serving to allow the wine to open.
