The heart of La Fiorita’s success lies in its devotion to expressing the unique character of the Montalcino region and the Sangiovese grape. The estate’s nine hectares, divided into four distinct vineyards – La Fiorita, Pian Bossolino, Giardinello, and Poggio al Sole – are each a testament to this commitment. With a meticulous approach to viticulture, including the spurred cordon method and a careful control of yield, La Fiorita ensures that each vineyard contributes its unique qualities to the final blend.
What truly sets La Fiorita’s Brunello apart is the precision and care in the winemaking process. From selective harvesting to the delicate fermentation in concrete tanks, every step is designed to preserve the innate qualities of the grape. The wine’s journey through French oak and Slavonian casks, followed by a rest in concrete tanks and an extended bottle aging, exemplifies the estate’s philosophy of no shortcuts and no compromises.
The result is a Brunello that is not just a wine but a narrative of the land, a symphony of diverse soils, altitudes, and microclimates. Each sip offers a glimpse into the dedication and passion that defines La Fiorita Estate, a jewel in the crown of Montalcino that promises an exciting future for generations to come.
