Tucked away on a long and curvy dirty road, the vineyards are in the heroic south of Montalcino with the red lands. Brunello di Montalcino, terroir-driven, exposes the flavors, scents, and tastes of this part of Tuscany.

The 2017 has a Full body, rich and ripe cherry, drying red roses, sweet spices, black truffle, and a mineral finish. It's very concentrated, decisive and well balanced.
