Brunello di Montalcino
“D.O.C.G Riserva”
The 24 month wood aging period takes place in 5 hl French oak tonneaux and also in slavonian oak vats. The remaining period before the release of the wine is spent in bottle. The annual production is of about 20.000 bottles
The "Riserva" version of the Brunello doesn't go through different processes but it's made out of one of vineyards whose fruits are always treated separately and it ages for one extra year in bottle before being released
