Descrizione

Brunello di Montalcino DOCG 2011 - Podere Casisano is a wine of great elegance, an authentic expression of the Tuscan territory. Made exclusively from Sangiovese grosso grapes grown in the vineyards located on the hills of Montalcino, this Brunello patiently ages for at least four years, including a minimum of two in oak barrels, giving it complexity and structure.

In the glass, it shows an intense ruby color, while on the nose it releases aromas of ripe cherry, sweet spices, tobacco, and light balsamic hints. On the palate, it is enveloping, with silky tannins that caress the mouth, supported by a pleasant acidity that ensures freshness and longevity. The finish is persistent and slightly savory.

Perfect with rich dishes such as roasted red meats, game, and aged cheeses, this Brunello strongly tells the story of Montalcino’s wine-making tradition and the passion of Podere Casisano.

Winery history

The property is located in the southeast of Montalcino and, according to the official website, is set on an estate that overlooks the surrounding valley. The producer’s public description emphasizes the importance of the location and the differing ages of the vineyards in defining the style of the wines; the website does not state an explicit founding date.

Production philosophy

Production focused on expressing the terroir: high-altitude vineyard care, careful grape selection and extended aging of Brunello in Slavonian oak barrels to showcase the structure, acidity and longevity typical of Sangiovese di Montalcino.

Terroir and vineyards

The estate sits on a natural terrace at 480 metres above sea level on the hills southeast of Montalcino; the soil is described as predominantly galestro, with clay and limestone, which, together with the diurnal temperature range, influence the ripening and the aromatic profile of the grapes.
