ALTESINO The 2015 harvest in general was an excellent year in all areas of Tuscany. A vintage characterized by the health of the grapes, a good degree of technical maturation and the achievement of phenolic maturation.Winter was mild and rainy, allowing the formation of water reserves necessary to face the heat of July and the first half of August. High temperatures blocked the activity of the plants and late August rains were welcomed. September had ideal temperatures necessary to the maturation of Sangiovese. The harvest, slightly earlier than usual, took place on sunny and quiet days from a climactic point of view, which has not happened for some time. 30265138 Brunello DOCG (In Wood) 1 / 3L $230. 30265161 Brunello DOCG (In Wood) 1 / 5L $400. 30265135 Brunello DOCG 12 / 375ml $320. 30265136 Brunello DOCG 12 / 750ml $520. 30265137 Brunello DOCG (Indv Boxed) 6 / 1.5L $640. 30265162 Brunello Montosoli DOCG 6 / 750ml $520. 30265163 Brunello Montosoli DOCG (Indv Boxed) 6 / 1.5L $1,140. CAMPOGIOVANNI Campogiovanni’s vineyards are sited on the South quadrant of the Montalcino hill, where weather conditions and a particular combination of soils favor optimal ripening of the Sangiovese Grosso grape. Campogiovanni Brunello is absolutely classic in style, ageing three years in Slavonian oak casks and in 500-litre ton- neaux, then another 12 months in the bottle. It is recognized for its finesse and for its longevity. 30270643 Brunello di Montalcino 6 / 750ml $280.
CASANOVA DI NERI Our Brunello di Montalcino is the expression of a territory and the specific subdi- vision that it is made up of. Our classic Brunello with its Casanova di Neri stamp and its white label was the first to be produced and is the expression of the most elegant Sangiovese of Casanova di Neri. Cerretalto and Tenuta Nuova are unique expression of Sangiovese di Montalcino, where the terroir defies any possible cate- gorization and classification, offering incomparable and individual characteristics that lead to wines of striking distinction. 30270354 Brunello di Montalcino Tenuta Nuova 1 / 1.5L $172. 30270355 Brunello di Montalcino Tenuta Nuova 1 / 3L $396. 30270353 Brunello di Montalcino Tenuta Nuova 6 / 750ml $560. 30270350 Brunello di Montalcino White Label 12 / 750ml $580. CORTONESI Initially farmed as one single territory, to produce just one wine, in 1998 the family had already grasped the potential of these two soils, realizing that to unite such different products meant to decrease Montalcino’s potential. Hence the idea of producing, alongside the “classic” Brunello that had been produced until then and would later take on the name of “La Mannella”, a new product, a selection originating exclusively from the grapes harvested in the south-east area, named, indeed,“Poggiarelli”. The soil composition in fact, consisting of clay and sand- stone at La Mannella, rocky and rich in marl for I Poggiarelli, made scents, tastes and sensations completely different from each other, and it was at once clear that these differences could no longer be ignored. 30270654 La Mannella Brunello di Montalcino 12 / 750ml $480. 30270655 Poggiarelli Brunello di Montalcino 12 / 750ml $768.

IL MARRONETO 2015 was like sailing on a perfectly calm sea with a beautiful sunset to finish the day. It was very easy for us to make our selections in the vineyard. The grapes were wonderfully ripe right down to the most hidden parts, completely healthy and full of color and scents.We derived full, round wines with beautiful mouth- feel.Wines of great acidity enveloped in softness from an excellent polymerization of the tannins that will surely give a very long life to the wine. Aromas of flowers on the nose and silky smoothness on the palate. As for the Madonna delle Grazie, it’s scary amazing! 30265165 Brunello di Montalcino DOCG 6 / 750ml $400. 30265166 Brunello di Montalcino Sel Madonna Grazie 6 / 750ml $1,080. LE MACIOCHE The vineyards of Le Macioche enjoyed an excellent position, both in terms of exposure and altitude, which allowed us to pursue the style of Brunello di Montal- cino we look for.We want the elegance to outshine the power.We want complex- ity of flavor and acidity that molds to the balance and integration of the wine. With the 2015 vintage, we have achieved these characteristics. 30265169 Brunello di Montalcino 6 / 750ml $360.
POGGIO DI SOTTO 2015 will be recorded as one of the best for Brunello di Montalcino in the last decade. This is thanks to the generous rains that fell in the middle of June and the end of July that rebalanced the vineyards and relieved the Sangiovese grapes from the hot summer days. The right combination of light, water and sun with good differences of temperatures between night and day resulted in superior fruit.We achieved a classic, austere style Brunello, full and lively with remarkable finesse and persistence, characteristics that are surely indicative of along and well-de- served life. 30265168 Brunello DOCG 6 / 750ml $1,000. TENUTA SAN GIORGIO 2015 was a year of brilliant ripening for Sangiovese in Montalcino. Refreshing rains in August and high diurnal temperature variations were perfect for the development of outstanding aromatic concentration and the smooth maturation of tannins in the skins of the Sangiovese. Grapes were harvested under optimal conditions during the first half of September. This unusually early harvest helped us maintain freshness and acidity from a variety of vineyard elevations. It’s easy to say that we are more than pleased with the results. 30265167 Ugolforte Brunello Montalicno DOCG 6 / 750ml $220.
