Appellation: Brunello di Montalcino D.O.C.G Grape varieties: Sangiovese 100%
The territory: Montalcino Vineyard location: San Polo and Montluc - approximately 9 hectares (22.2 acres)
Vinification and ageing Harvest: Grapes are hand harvested in small 17 kg crates towards the end of September. Vinification: After careful selection of the berries, soft crushing of the grapes
Vintage characteristics: The number of clusters was ideal and not excessive. A cool, wet spring delayed flowering by a few days, thus delaying the expected harvest period by at least one week
Food pairings: The elegance and harmonious personality of this wine enables it to pair extremely well with highly-structured cuisine such as red meats and game, as well as with mushrooms and truffles. It is ideal with matured cheeses such as Parmigiano Reggiano and Tuscan pecorino. Serve in large glasses at 18-20°C (65-68°F) to fully enjoy its aromas, opening the bottle two hours before drinking.

San Polo is a relatively new comer to the Montalcino region, established in 2007 the winery was given a blank canvas in which to build and made the decision early on to follow ecological, environmental and economic sustainability. The vines are grown with the principals of organic viticulture producing very low yields with that unmistakeable Brunello finesse, spicy nuances, robust texture and lengthy finish that gave it world-class fame.
