Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG 2012

The crushed and destemmed grapes undergo a sudden drop in temperature to 16°C, in a protected CO2 environment. This process of cooling the grape skin allows for greater extraction of the anthocyanin and polyphenol content. Normal alcoholic fermentation lasts for approximately 16/17 days at a controlled temperature of 27°-28°C. The drawing off is followed by malolactic fermentation and subsequently the wine is placed in medium-small capacity barrels (2.25 hl – 15 hl) followed by passage into larger capacity barrels, where the Brunello Riserva is aged for at least three years and then aged in bottle for a minimum of 6 months.

Intense ruby ​​red color. On the nose it is intense, broad, enveloping and complex, with strong notes of spices and aromatic herbs that meet hints of red fruit and cherries in alcohol. Elegant sip, guided by a soft tannin that accompanies the beautiful acidity and flavor; long persistence and balance.

Mixed roasts, braised meats, game and hard cheeses.
