Intense ruby-hues are the hallmark of La Campana Brunellos with distinct aromas of the black berry fruits so distinctive of Sangiovese. The palate is smooth, with excellent and well-rounded tannins and exceptional length (12 x 75 cl)

The Rivetti family story begins in the 1890s, when Giovanni Rivetti, grandfather of the three Rivetti brothers, Carlo, Bruno and Giorgio, left Piedmont for Argentina. Like many Italians of that time, he dreamed of returning rich and a powerful man, perhaps even one day able to make a great wine in his homeland. He never did, though his son, Giuseppe did. Pin married Lidia, bought vineyards and began to make wine. In 1977 the family took up residence at La Spinetta in Castagnole Lanze and still run the estate today. The Sezzana Estate was purchased in 2001 to produce wines of great flavour and character. Great care and dedication is taken to produce this 100% Sangiovese wine that has spent 12-14 months in new french Oak before being transfered to stainless steel vats for 3 months. Finally, without any filtration or clarifying, it is aged another 3-4 months in the bottle. This has produced a dark ruby red coloured wine with scents of ripe berries, vanilla and coffee while the influence of oak is evident. Full bodied with sweet tannins the impeccably balanced wood and acidity deliver through to the long fine finish. (12 x 75 cl)

Once the fruit is harvested the wine remains in slovenian oak casks for at least two years before bottling, the result is a clear, purple-red in colour. The Gamey liquorice character of Brunello gives way to good weight and richness on the palate and finishes with good elegance and complexity. (6 x 75 cl)
