Understanding Canalicchio di Sopra, Brunello di Montalcino, Tuscany
The grapes are handpicked at their optimal ripeness, then vinified in stainless steel tanks to preserve their fresh, fruit-forward character. Following fermentation, the wine is aged in large Slavonian oak barrels for 36 months, enriching it with subtle woody nuances and bolstering its structure. The wine is then bottle-aged, allowing further complexity and elegance to unfold.
