Cerbaia Brunello di Montalcino

The Cerbaia vineyard is perched at among the highest elevations in Montosoli, above the fog line, protecting against autumnal fog and spring frosts.  The stony soils add warmth to this relatively cooler area of Montalcino, extending the growing cycle, producing aromatic and complex fruit. Cerbaia’s organic farming, green harvesting and light touch in the cellar allow the site’s natural character to come through, with hallmark notes of fresh, ripe cherry and floral hints, crisp flavors and well-developed tannins.
