Description

The Brunello di Montalcino DOCG from Val di Suga represents a Tuscan excellence, made from 100% Sangiovese grapes grown on the hills of Montalcino, an area renowned for its sun exposure and limestone soils that impart minerality and complexity to the wine.

This Brunello, presented in a Magnum format and kept in a refined wooden case, stands out for its long and careful aging, which includes a period in oak barrels and further maturation in the bottle, thus enhancing an elegant and enveloping bouquet with notes of ripe red fruits, sweet spices, and light balsamic nuances.

On the palate, it is full-bodied, with silky tannins and a perfect balance between freshness and structure. Ideal to pair with red meats, roasts, and aged cheeses, this Brunello di Montalcino embodies the tradition and artisanal care of Val di Suga.

Winery history

The estate was reconverted to vineyards beginning in the 1960s. In 1969 it was acquired by a company that began converting the land to viticulture. The first harvest is recorded in 1973 and the first wine marketed under the Val di Suga label dates from 1975. In the 1980s the company began to promote single-vineyard wines and in 1994 it joined the Tenimenti Angelini group. In 2009 the cru Poggio al Granchio was created; more recently the company's image was redesigned to emphasize the three production areas.

Production philosophy

The style is oriented around the concept of terroir: the estate interprets Sangiovese through three different exposures and soils, producing both single-vineyard wines and blends that seek balance among the components. Attention is paid to the relationship between the landscape, cellar development and tasting.

Terroir and vineyards

Located in Montalcino, in the heart of the Val d'Orcia, the estate comprises vineyards on three aspects of the hill, with distinct microclimates and variable soils — from galestro to sand and clay — that contribute to the varied expressions of Sangiovese.
