Winemaker Note
100% Sangiovese from sustainably-farmed estate vineyards located in the central hill area of Montalcino. The grapes are hand-harvested and the wine is aged in traditional large botti, rather than barriques. Aromas of red cherry and berry with notes of Tuscan herb, orange peel and cigar wrapper. On the palate the wine is bright with a good core of fruit and polished tannins making this a Brunello that will continue to develop nicely as it ages. Elegant, suave, old school Brunello - and always an amazing value.

For centuries the Bartoli Giusti family has been cultivating vines to produce Brunello di Montalcino. Old maps found during the renovation of the cellars testify to the company's activity dating before the early eighteenth century. Located in the Municipality of Montalcino, 125 hectares are divided into 12 hectares of vineyards, 30 ha of olive groves, 60 ha of arable land and the remainder, uncultivated forest. The cellar, with aging rooms completely underground, is on the premises of Osservanza, at the gates of Montalcino.
