The exposure is east, south-east and the soil type is composed prevalently of Galestro with small components of mud and clay, only a minor part of it has a relevant presence of eocenic sands. This Riserva of Brunello is made only in the best vintages from the oldest vineyards in Montalcino. The ageing in barrel and in bottle is longer, 36 months, then the one for the normal Brunello, thus the wine has a deeper concentration and a wider complexity of aromas. (6 x 75 cl)
