Come with me into the wine region where famous Brunello is made and enjoy the wines
Montalcino is a hill south of Siena, where the combination of soil, sun exposure, and climate creates unique conditions that turn Sangiovese into a full-bodied, flavorful, long-living red wine: Brunello di Montalcino, that we all love.
It all started at the end of the 19th century when Biondi Santi pioneered a groundbreaking method, aging his wine in oak barrels for years. Brunello is now famous and exported worldwide. There are over 250 producers and bottlers in Montalcino.
Come with me and taste some of the best labels. I will guide you through different styles of Brunello, boutique wineries, family managed activities, fancy branded producers and traditional brands.
