<!-- image --> <!-- image --> ## Brunello di Montalcino 2021 ## B A C K G R O U N D As one of the original estates of Montalcino and now the largest certied organic vineyard in Tuscany, Col d'Orcia is a leader in Brunello di Montalcino helping to dene and promote one of Italy's most prestigious wines. Tradition, integrity, and sustainability are the pillars of the estate, whose classic style wines are marked by balance and elegance. Col d'Orcia is considered a 'traditional' producer of Brunello di Montalcino for its use of aging wine in large Slavonian oak barrels and for the prolonged periods in which the wines are aged. This process ensures that Sangiovese is the true star; the backbone to the wine's structure and age-ability, rather than the oak. ## T E R R O I R &amp; V I N T A G E N O T E S The estate's name translates to 'the hill overlooking the Orcia River,' due to its position between the undulating hills of the Orcia River and Sant'Angelo in Colle. Here, vineyards are comprised of limestone and marl soils. At 1,500 ft a.s.l., the estate is favorably positioned against Mount Amiata, which helps protect against oods and hail. The climate is typically Mediterranean, with limited rainfall coming from the Tyrrhenian coast, 21 miles away. The 2021 harvest in Montalcino was affected by a couple of severe frosts in April that reduced yields and caused some damage to the vines. A restorative, warm late spring and a hot, dry summer, moderated by cool nights, helped the vines rebound to produce grapes with aromatic intensity. A smaller vintage, but one where the wines are showing incredible fruit and approachability. ## WINE M A KI N G &amp; A G I N G Manual harvest with rigorous selection of the best grapes in the vineyard and cellar. Temperature controlled 18-20-day fermentation in shallow, stainless-steel tanks designed to extract tannin and color efciently but delicately. The wine is aged three years in 25, 50 and 75 hl Slavonian and Allier (French) oak casks, followed by one year renement in bottle. ## TA S T I N G N O T E S Pleasant fruity notes of black cherry and jam, followed by the classic hints of spices and vanilla. The prole is warm, with ripe and clear tannins. Intense and persistent, leading to a long nish. 750ML <!-- image --> <!-- image --> <!-- image --> <!-- image --> <!-- image --> 750ML <!-- image --> 750ML 750ML <!-- image --> <!-- image --> ## ORIGIN Brunello di Montalcino DOCG, Tuscany, Italy ## GRA P E VA R I E T I E S 100% Sangiovese ## S I Z E S 750ml, 375ml T E C H N I C A L D E T A I L S ABV: 14.5%, TA: 5.5, Closure: Cork WINE M A KE R Antonino Tranchida <!-- image -->
