Gemini is a portentous red born from the bunches of the best vineyards present since 1993; a cru and a reserve at the same time. The harvest has beginning in October, the grapes are harvested by hand after careful selection and then delicately de-stemmed. This Brunello di Montalcino has the privilege of fermenting and maturing in truncated conical vats of about 70 hl dedicated to it; always within the same, alcoholic fermentation, malolactic fermentation and finally aging is carried out, which generally follows a period never less than 36 months.

A wine with a strong personality that dresses the glass with an intense and at the same time bright ruby red color. It offers an ample and persistent bouquet to the nose characterized by elegant notes of fruit, marasca cherry in alcohol, nuances of dried tobacco on a background that recalls sweet spices. A sip that quicks long and velvety tannins, well supported by a crunchy acidity that bodes well for the excellent aging capacity.

On the palate a juicy and satisfying finish remains, characterized by a savory and mineral sip, which stimulates salivation and recalls the combination with important foods based on red meats, roasts, game and aged cheeses.

An excellent glass to sip and savor even alone to fully enjoy the organoleptic qualities.
