Vigna di Pianrosso
Riserva Santa Caterina d'Oro
The Brunello Riserva is a result of careful selections of the Pianrosso grape in the vineyards followed by a long maceration in our wine cellars.
Vineyard: 11,69 hectares (29,22 acres) are named after “Pianrosso”: situated at an altitude between 240 and 360 a.s.l. with a soil of medium grain with good levels of marl, dating to the Eocene period.
Grape varietal: 100% Sangiovese
Fermentation and refinement: In stainless steel and glass concrete vats, temperature-controlled via cooling plates and jackets.
Ageing: more than 3 years in 7,5 - 30 hl Slavonian oak barrels, followed by over 12 months of bottle ageing.
Colour: Ruby red verging on garnet.
Organoleptic characteristics: The bouquet is intense and complex: fruit-forward, spicy and ethereal, with hints of red berries and various spices. Warm, harmonic with pronounced and soft tannins. A fullbodied wine with a very long aftertaste. A Brunello that can be refined in the bottle for many years.
Service: Open an hour before pouring and serve at 18°C (64,4° F) in large crystal glasses. Bottles should be kept in a horizontal position, far from light sources and protected from both extremes and changes in temperature.
Food pairings: Excellent with roasted and game meat. Enjoyable with mature cheeses or as a meditation wine.
Technical notes: Bottles are protected against counterfeiting by a hologram on the capsule.
