About this wine

The 2016 Brunello di Montalcino – Piccoli Contenitori spent 47 months in wood, followed by at least 42 months of bottle ageing.

Technical data

Production comprised 2,887 bottles in 750 ml format and 270 magnums of 1,500 ml.

Serving and pairing

Vintage notes

The 2016 vintage is named La limpidezza (“Clarity”) and is characterized as rich, clear and bright. It belongs to the winery’s post-2016 approach of dividing each vintage into distinct groups of vines to express different facets of the year and the San Giuseppe terroir.
