Poggio di Sotto Brunello di Montalcino 2018
Brunello Poggio di Sotto is a wine produced with respect for tradition, in which the Sangiovese grapes can express their infinite potential in the most natural way possible. This achievement is reached thanks to a natural and non-interventionist farming method, except for the severity of thinning, and to a wine ageing made up of indigenous yeasts, steel vats but also oak vats for fermentation, medium-large barrels and long ageing times (4 years for Brunello), and no filtering before bottling.

Colour

Bouquet

Intense, rich and pronounced with ethereal and spicy notes.

Flavour

Origin Village of Castelnuovo dell’Abate (Siena).
Soil composition Poor soil mainly composed of Marl. This kind of rock soil avoids on the one hand the stagnation of water and on the other allows water to emerge very easily from the deep layers of the soil. The big fragments of rock absorb heat during the day and give it back when it becomes cool in the evening.
Cultivation system Guyot.
No. plants per hectare About 3,000- 4,200.
Harvest Usually between September and October. The grapes are picked by hand and are selected directly in the vineyards. When the grapes arrive in the wine factory in small boxes, they are once more accurately selected, destemmed and softly pressed.
Vinification Fermentation starts spontaneously with indigenous yeasts. Fermentation and maceration occur in steel vats and since 2001 also in oak vats. Fermentation is followed scrupulously through chemical and sensory analyses. Maceration lasts about 20 days, during which periodic pump-overs are carried out. Delestages are also carried out for better colour extraction.
Ageing After racking, the wine matures in stainless steel and oak vats in a temperature-controlled environment until December/January. Afther that, it undergoes the malolactic fermentation. Afterwards, the wine is transferred to oak barrels from 25 to 30 hl for about four years. During this period, the Brunello will be given all the necessary attention such as racking, topping off, and analytical and sensory controls. At the end of the ageing, the wine is judged by a special public commission, and if deemed suitable it is bottled without filtration and without any treatment or addition. Ageing in the bottle lasts for at least one year.
