Montalcino: The Cradle of Brunello Excellence
Perched in the rolling hills of Tuscany, Montalcino is synonymous with some of the world’s most prestigious wines. With a history dating back to Etruscan times, the region has become a beacon of Italian winemaking tradition. Montalcino’s unique terroir, shaped by its sunny slopes and diverse soils, is the birthplace of Brunello di Montalcino, a wine crafted exclusively from Sangiovese Grosso, a local variant of the iconic Sangiovese grape. Renowned for its elegance, structure, and longevity, Brunello has set the standard for bold red wines. Alongside Brunello, the region also produces Rosso di Montalcino, a younger and vibrant expression of its famous counterpart.
