The Brunello di Montalcino DOCG produced by Le Macioche embodies the elegance and power typical of this famous Tuscan territory. Derived exclusively from the Sangiovese grosso grape variety cultivated on the hills of Montalcino, it stands out for a patient aging process that takes place in oak barrels, giving it a complex and structured character. On the nose, it presents intense aromas of ripe red fruits, sweet spices, and subtle notes of tobacco and leather, while on the palate it is enveloping, with soft and well-integrated tannins, supported by a fresh acidity that guarantees longevity and harmony. The minerality of the clay-limestone soil of the production area gives the wine a savory and persistent texture. An excellent companion to red meats, game, and aged cheeses, it represents an authentic symbol of the Sienese winemaking tradition, capable of telling the story and vocation of Montalcino in a bottle.

Winery history
The estate takes its name from the roots of the strawberry tree found in the woods surrounding the property. Originally founded by the Mazzocchi family, the estate was acquired by the Cotarella family at the start of the 2017 harvest, from which point production has been released under the Cotarella name and incorporated into their winemaking projects.
Production philosophy
Production focused on expressing the Montalcino terroir and on careful work in the vineyard and cellar; available sources note attention to agricultural practices and to an elegant interpretation of Sangiovese Grosso for Brunello.
Terroir and vineyards
Vineyards concentrated in the southern quadrant of Montalcino, in the Sant'Antimo area, facing south-south-east at about 450 metres above sea level. The soils are rich in marl and limestone and feature a good stony component, conditions that favour a long and balanced ripening of the grapes.
Awards and recognitions
Le Macioche vintages have received recognition and scores from industry publications and critics for several vintages; the official documentation lists awards and ratings for vintages such as 2010, 2011, 2013 and later.
