Brunello di Montalcino DOCG Ugolforte San Giorgio

Brunello di Montalcino Ugolforte is a pure Sangiovese Grosso made from 20-25 year old vines, located between 250 and 400 meters above sea level and which have their roots in a subsoil rich in tuff and clay. Viticulture based on principles totally respectful of the environment allows for the creation of a great wine: long maceration to extract mature tannins, aging in barriques for 12 months and in Slavonian oak for a further 28, thus Ugolforte was born, which takes its name from a famous 12th-century brigand who led the people of Montalcino against the Sienese occupation.

Deep garnet red with ruby traces, the nose opens with tones of red fruit in alcohol and rose petals, then a seductive progression thick spice, black tea, pipe tobacco and carob. Balsamic nuances. Very pleasant on the palate, already incredibly balanced and enjoyable, it oscillates between an exuberant alcohol, freshness and minerality, together with a surprisingly velvety tannin. Excellent finish, with a very long persistence.
