Brunello di Montalcino Castello Romitorio is our pride: the fruit of more than thirty years of work in harmony with nature in the Montalcino terroir. The Romitorio company is located in the northwest quadrant of Montalcino where this classic Brunello is produced from Sangiovese grapes, coming from old and young vines, carefully harvested and selected by hand on the counter, before and after destemming. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, with a short initial period of cold maceration (below 20°C) on the skins for approximately 15-20 hours, followed by a higher controlled temperature maceration which can last up to 20 days. Malolactic fermentation begins naturally and lasts for about 10 days before the wine is left to rest to separate it from the sediment.

Description

REGION: TUSCANY CULTIVATION: Spurred CORD WITH 240X65 CM PLANTING DENSITY VARIETY: 100% SANGIOVESE HARVEST: BY HAND, WITH HAND SELECTION OF THE GRAPES BEFORE AND AFTER DESTEMKING ELEVATION: ABOUT 24 MONTHS IN OAK There is something inebriating and invigorating about this wine: a high nose of oak and fruit with accents of cherries, violets and pomegranate. There are also hints of earth and, with ageing, nuances of sage and soy. The tannins are deeply intertwined in the body, firm but fine, and give this wine an exceptional structure, a skeleton from which the fruit, oak and aromas can fully express themselves. The wine slowly unfolds in the glass, becomes more sinuous and sensual in contact with the air, the slight astringent of the tannins invites you to take other sips. The refinement in the bottle brings pleasant tertiary notes of leather and herbs, the persistence and the aroma are long-lasting. This wine leaves its mark as soon as it is released, but becomes even more true to itself as it ages.
