Brunello di Montalcino wine tour
per person
The wine created in the second half of 1800 by Ferruccio Biondi-Santi, is produced solely in the area surrounding Montalcino in the southernmost part of the province of Siena, and by adhering to very strict procedural guidelines. The Sangiovese Grosso is the only grape used to make this wine, which is known as the “Greatest among Tuscan Reds”. The grapes are matured for at least 5 years in various stages between barrels and bottles, and the Sangiovese Grosso is also used to produce the young Rosso di Montalcino.
