BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO D.O.C.G. 2002

The 2002 Brunello di Montalcino will certainly not go down in history as one of the most prestigious vintages, but, as often happens in particularly difficult climatic conditions, a very careful selection of grapes and a harvest in the second half of October have allowed us to obtain a wine which will surely allow for pleasant surprises disproving those who predicted otherwise.

In spite of not being able to produce a great quantity of Brunello di Montalcino, we felt inspired by the challenge this vintage presented, and we gladly leave it to our dearest clients to give their opinion on our work and its results, which we deem as beyond our expectations.
