The Castiglion del Bosco Brunello di Montalcino 2020 is a pure Sangiovese from Tuscany that reflects a warm, dry vintage. The grapes are sourced primarily from the estate’s Capanna vineyard, located in the north-west of Montalcino. This site, characterised by its high altitude and soil composed of clay shale and Galestro rock, is part of the largest contiguous Brunello vineyard holding in the region. The wine underwent 18 days of fermentation in steel tanks and was then matured for 24 months in French oak barrels.
