Description

Brunello di Montalcino DOCG - Poggio alle Mura - Banfi presents itself as an elegant expression of Sangiovese Grosso, the emblematic grape of this renowned Tuscan denomination. Produced in the heart of Tuscany, in the territory of Montalcino, this wine stands out for its balanced structure and aromatic complexity. The aging takes place in oak barrels, which impart depth to the aromas of ripe red fruits, sweet spices, and light balsamic notes.

On the palate, it is enveloping and harmonious, with soft tannins supporting a long persistent finish. Its ability to evolve over time makes it ideal to accompany dishes of red meats, game, and aged cheeses, enhancing the local gastronomic tradition with a modern and refined character. A wine that tells the story of Montalcino through every sip.

Winery history

Cantina Santi was founded as a winery in Illasi and has been present in Valpolicella since the 19th century. During the 20th century the Santi family introduced technical innovations and progressively focused on high-end wines; in 1974 the winery became part of Gruppo Italiano Vini, which reinforced investments and facilities while preserving its local identity.

Production philosophy

Santi claims a style tied to the sense of place of Valpolicella: it favors the predominant use of Corvina in its selections, aging in large traditional casks, and the use of local woods to enhance the aromatic qualities typical of native grape varieties. The approach combines oenological research with respect for local practices.

Terroir and vineyards

Santi's vineyards and selections are concentrated in Val d'Illasi and the classic areas of Valpolicella, using a vineyard-selection approach across different exposures and microclimates to produce wines that reflect the local terroir. The winery also works with vineyards in other Veronese appellations such as Soave, Bardolino and Lugana.
