Rosso di Montalcino DOC 2021 - Cerbaiona

About the wine

Wonderful 17th century villa with a fascinating chapel on a wall belt. That's Cerbaiona, 400 meters above sea level, northeast of the village of Montalcino. The gaze of the traveller driving from Torrenieri to Montalcino can only be captured by Cerbaiona, which has been the face of this corner of Montalcino for centuries and even before the name “Brunello di Montalcino” appears, it was said that the best wine comes from la Cerbaiona. These were the first indications of a particularly suitable location for Sangiovese. A real cru. In 1977, a non-local man ended up there, who turned to his neighbors to replant and expand the vineyard. With the 1981 vintage, Cerbaiona thus became a wine brand that came onto the market four years later.
