The indicated vineyards are located about 200 meters above sea level, and the harvest is done manually, with careful selection in the vineyard and in the cellar. The production philosophy favors low yields, spontaneous fermentations, prolonged macerations, and long aging in oak barrels, followed by further maturation in the bottle. The result is a classic-cut Brunello di Montalcino DOCG Riserva, austere and harmonious, capable of combining strength and precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the glass, it presents a \u003cstrong\u003elight ruby red\u003c\/strong\u003e tending to garnet, typical of evolved Sangiovese. The nose reveals fresh fruit aromas, followed by spicy accents and nuances of aromatic herbs, with hints of helichrysum. On the palate, it is an austere, sanguine wine with remarkable sapidity, with an important structure but supported by great elegance. The taste profile is deep, vertical, and persistent, with a finish that leaves a precise and noble sensation. It is a Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 2016 that emphasizes the energy of the terroir and the finesse of Sangiovese.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRecommended pairings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eBrunello di Montalcino Riserva 2016 Poggio di Sotto\u003c\/strong\u003e shines with structured dishes rich in flavor.
