This Riserva, produced  from a  selection of  estate-grown grapes,  reflects all  the soil characteristics of Brolio. Sandstone, marl, marine deposits, and the calcarenites locally called “alberese”, all converge in the distinctive harmony of this magnificent wine. The vineyards, that show different exposures, are planted at 260 meters to 500 meters (853 to 1,640  feet) above sea level.

Overall, we can state that 2018 was a complex harvest due to the climate trends, which tended to be more humid than average in the past, but with excellent summer temperatures and a very dry period in the months of September and October. Thanks to good underground water supplies, the plants never suffered water stress and ripened regularly. The quality of the grapes was of a very high standard, which leads us to hope for a high quality wine.

Intense ruby red color. The nose is rich, with intense hints of violets, ripe red fruit, and gentle notes of spices and vanilla. Silky tannins ensure a full-bodied mouthfeel and a long sweet finish.
