Brunello di Montalcino 2017

Argiano (hentet 13. okt. 2026): Brunello di Montalcino 2017 – Brunello di Montalcino DOCG Druer: 100 % Sangiovese (producentens tekniske ark). Alkohol: 14.5 % vol. Jord (producentens tekst, engelsk): Marl, ancient clay with a high limestone concentration. Højde (producentens tekst, engelsk): Between 280 and 310 meters above sea level. Vinmarker (producentens tekst, engelsk): From 55 to 12 years old. Vejret (producentens tekst, engelsk): A mild winter anticipated the vegetative phase. A very cool spring that has seen some risk of frost, limited by the scaling ratio of our pruning program. The absence of rain in April raised a special attention; we needed a very careful sprouts selection and techniques to contain foliar perspiration to overcome the warmer months. The harvest was anticipated compared to the usual and the production was reduced by thirty percent selecting only the most intact bunches to produce Brunello. Vigna del Suolo, by far the vineyard that has reacted better to drought, has been entirely used to produce classic Brunello and to guarantee its quality. Høst (producentens tekst, engelsk): Early September. Vinifikation (producentens tekst, engelsk): Fermentation with selected yeasts for about two weeks in steel tanks at controlled temperatures. Pre- fermentative cold maceration paying great attention to the extraction of tannins, malolactic fermentation in cement tanks. Lagring (producentens tekst, engelsk): About 30 months in Slavonian and French oak barrels of different capacities (10/15/30/50 hl). Bottling in April and May following the most favorable phases of the moon. Long aging in the bottle. TASTING NOTES BY BERNARDINO SANI, CEO AND WINEMAKER: Extremely fruity nose with exotic and complex notes, in the mouth it is perfectly balanced, quite soft, and enticing with tannins very integrated and a savory note on the finish.
