Let’s talk about Brunello di Montalcino DOCG - 375ml - Val di Suga

More questions

The Brunello di Montalcino DOCG of Val di Suga is a Tuscan excellence that expresses the character of Sangiovese in an intense and refined form. Cultivated in the vineyards of Montalcino, a territory famous for its unique combination of clay soils and a Mediterranean climate with continental influences, this wine best enhances the native variety symbolic of the region. The aging takes place mainly in oak barrels, which impart structure and complex aromatic nuances without overpowering the fruit.

In the glass, it presents a deep ruby color, then aromas of ripe cherry, delicate spices, and notes of tobacco and leather emerge, testimony to its evolution. On the palate, it is full, enveloping, with elegant tannins and a sapidity that invites drinking. An excellent companion to red meats, game, and aged cheeses, it is a wine with a decisive and long-lasting character.

The winery

Val di Suga

ToscanaItaliaSince 1969

Winery in Montalcino (Tuscany) known for producing Brunello and Rosso di Montalcino through an approach based on three cru vineyards located on different slopes of the hill.
Grape varieties
Sangiovese
  • Three distinct crus: Vigna del Lago, Poggio al Granchio, Vigna Spuntali
  • Production of Brunello di Montalcino DOCG and Rosso di Montalcino DOC
  • Acquired by Tenimenti Angelini in 1994 and subsequently modernized.
  • Varied soils and microclimates that favor regional expressions of Sangiovese.
The story
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.
Awards and recognition
Various scores and awards listed in guides and vintage sheets.
