Brunello wine tour, Tuscany,


 March, while waiting for the Spring arrive, the wine girls took another  wine trip to the Brunello region, to discover new wineries. We left Florence in the morning, driving towards Siena and an hour and a half later we arrived in Montalcino,  we headed straight into the first cellar, with a gorgeous view over the Brunello vineyards and we started  enjoying  a special traditional brunello wine,  powerful and potentially of great longevity good to match with strong flavour food; we loved this winery  for sure we will come back with our customers, then we visited  another renowed winery, the route was simply spectacular, no words ... do not believe us? take a look at the pictures! After an excellent lunch, we went to explore two other wineries waiting for us,  fabulous as well the two in the morning
what about ... we can not wait to introduce you to our gorgeous wineries as soon as possible.
Remember to include a brunello tour while you are in Florence or in Siena!

Brunello, Tuscany

Desolate and arid zones are crossed before arriving in Montalcino to taste the famous Brunello wine.


areas called Crete Senesi very charming and special and protected by world heritage protection, UNESCO 


the arid hills of the Crete Senesi are composed of limestone , sand and clay and after thousand years of rain and wind. have taken on strange and bizarre shape


 Yet this land is perfect for the famous Brunello made from the Sangiovese grapes.





thanks to the soil, the volcano Amiata, the proximity of the sea, forests of oak, the long aging in oak barrels the san giovese delight us with a wonderful wine called brunello for the dark red of the berries ...



Brunello is a DOCG  so can be produced only in a very limited area around the Montalcino hill.

Brunello requires so many conditions that make it a special wine
