Fattoria Casisano Brunello di Montalcino DOCG, Tuscany, Italy 2020
Among the rolling hills of Tuscany, surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, we find the Casisano estate, where wine is a result of passion, experience and love for the magnificent Montalcino lands.
Casisano is located on a breathtaking natural terrace, at 480 meters above sea level overlooking the southern-eastern area of Montalcino, facing Sant’Angelo in Colle and the Abbey of Sant’ Antimo. In all, the estate covers 53 hectares of land, 22 of which are vineyards.
The perfect trio of altitude, wind and terroir converge to lend Casisano its characteristic features. The altitude guarantees optimal ripening of the grapes.
The cool northerly winds and the mild southwesterly sea breezes meet to generate exemplary temperature ranges. The soil, mainly galestro, shale clay and lime, enriches the wines with minerality and salinity.
Tasting Note
Deep ruby red with a garnet tinge in color, the nose reveals all the elegant and fresh complexity of the fruity and spicy notes that are typical of Sangiovese. It displays a very attractive harmony on the palate, with rich fruit combining with velvety tannins, and an amazingly long finish.
