Castiglion del Bosco

2020 Brunello di Montalcino

Brunello di Montalcino DOCG
100% Sangiovese
Red wine

Brunello di Montalcino is the authentic expression of the “parcelized” soul of the Capanna vineyard, based on meticulous attention and respect for the unique characteristics of its terroir.
The 2020 harvest at Castiglion del Bosco was marked by a dry winter and a cool, rainy May, which provided ideal conditions for the initial growth of the vines. However, the summer was hot and dry, with 64 consecutive days without rain, putting the vines under significant stress. A late August rainfall allowed for the monitoring of grape maturation, but high temperatures and low day-night temperature variation accelerated the ripening process. The harvest began on September 3 with grapes picked to benefit the remaining clusters and concluded at the end of the month. The resulting wines are fresh, fragrant, with good aging potential.
