Brunello di Montalcino DOCG 2018 2018 crowns the talent of Tuscan winemakers. A vintage that is very reminiscent of those of our grandparents and has given us a modern, elegant and richly scented Brunello.

An English summer, with an umbrella always at hand and, at the end of August an Arctic disturbance that whitened the Alps and
stiffened the skin of the grapes in our vineyards. September had sunny days and almost winter nights. An anomalous climatic
situation that has greatly helped the vineyards. The grapes became smaller and as they matured they softened and an amazing synthesis of aromas took place.
The aromatic richness is the characterizing element of the 2018 vintage.

Brunellos vintage 2018 are the first certified BIO (organic) by Donatella Cinelli Colombini. BIO is a certification that aims to protect the environment and consumers, and which only allows the use of a little sulphur and copper in the vineyards. The grass is managed only with hoeing and the fertilizer is exclusively stable manure. The vines are taken care of manually and we no longer tie the vines with plastic to prevent this from creating pollution.
