To use a word that is popular now, the aromas are absolutely lifted. This is a bouquet-driven wine, showing great oak choices that are synergistic with the light and considerably thinner palate. Dried or pressed flowers cede to cherry, blueberry, some red meat char and a light touch of cinnamon. My impression is that the dry extract from the oak ultimately plays a bigger role in the overall flavor profile, preserving its red fruit core nevertheless. The wine is very accessible in terms of mouthfeel, showing a comparatively thinner and shorter approach. With more time in the glass, it offers some of the white soil dust that is a standard Solaia signature.\" - 95 points, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Antinori\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry:\u003c\/strong\u003e Italy\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tuscany\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal: \u003c\/strong\u003eCabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Sangiovese \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAppellation:\u003c\/strong\u003e Toscana IGT\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2017\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 750ml\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sommselection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39427535569032,"sku":"","price":419.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0349\/2239\/7832\/products\/PhotoRoom_20210708_165359.png?v=1626338228"},{"product_id":"salvioni-brunello-di-montalcino-cerbaiola-2017","title":"Salvioni - Brunello di Montalcino 'Cerbaiola' 2017","description":"\u003cp\u003eSurrounded by woodland, the 20 hectares of La Cerbaiola look out over the Val d’Orcia from an altitude of 420 metres, opening up like a gently sloping plateau four kilometres to the southeast of Montalcino. The air is clear, a slight breeze rustles the leaves, and on the hillside opposite the outlines of Pienza, San Quirico and Ripa d’Orcia are clearly visible. There are three small vineyards for a total of 4 hectares, each with its own characteristics: soils that vary from chalky schist to stony marl; and subtle differences of micro-climate that influence the ripening of the grapes. All the work in the vineyard is carried out by hand, with hard pruning to obtain low yields of fruit and careful selection during the manual harvest. Production is deliberately limited, to obtain the very best from a unique terroir: 10,000 bottles a year when only Brunello is made; and 15,000 for the years in which there is also some Rosso di Montalcino.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eAfter racking, the clean wine remains in the stainless steel vats for a few more months during which time the malolactic fermentation occurs very naturally before it is put in barrels.

In 1955, with the few savings of a lifetime, he bought the Eastern slope of the Montosoli hill, a very special place with a long tradition of Sangiovese cultivation dating back to the Middle- Age. The Montosoli hill was already famous for the production of high-quality wines thanks to its exceptional combination of soil composition and micro-climate. When the Consorzio del Vino Brunello di Montalcino was established in 1967, Nello Baricci was already considered a Master of Sangiovese. He put the first signature and received the badge #1. Moreover he registered the 1st hectare of Brunello at the Chamber of Commerce in Siena, a real pioneer in the history of Montalcino. The first bottle of Rosso di Montalcino was produced in 1968 and the first Brunello in 1971. Today Baricci is the only producer to have all his vineyards (5 Ha) in the Montosoli “Grand Cru”, plus the cellar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe estate is now managed by Nello’s grandsons, Federico and Francesco. In Montosoli the Pliocene marine-soil gives the Sangiovese vines great richness in mineral substances, plus its rocky structure (quartz, marnes, scist, fossils) guarantees a good drainage in the rainy seasons, which is a fundamental prerogative for a high-quality grape ripeness. The micro-climate is the other great component making this area so exceptional. The Montosoli Cru is located in the Northern area of Montalcino. The higher altitude works as a barrier from the heating and the warm winds coming from South. Moreover, the adjacent cooler and humid Valdarbia area to the North, contributes to lower the avarage temperature and to increase the humidity. This cooler climate makes the ripening process slower than in other areas of Montalcino. Here, usually the harvest is delayed of 15 days than in the warmer Southern sites. These characteristics give the wines perfect ripe tannins, great acidity and a very balanced sugar concentration, what translates in a Rosso full of freshness and fruitiness, and in a Brunello full of elegance, complexity, and smoothness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey are in the process for the organic conversion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e100% Sangiovese, fermented in stainless steel vats, on the skins for 25 days with frequent pumping over.

In the early 1990s, his son Giacomo Neri, the current winemaker, took over vineyard management and vinification duties. By that time, the family had already expanded its properties, including the purchase of what is today one of the most renowned vineyards in the Brunello di Montalcino appellation, Cerretalto. Years of hard work and devotion to high quality paid off both in 2006 when the Casanova di Neri 2001 Brunello di Montalcino Tenuta Nuova was named “Wine of the Year” in the Wine Spectator “Top Hundred Wines of the Year,” and in 2007 when the 2001 Brunello di Montalcino Cerretalto was awarded 100 points by the magazine. It was only the beginning of a string of perfect scores that the Neri family would receive from both Wine Spectator and Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate. The wines regularly score in the high 90s. The Neri Family often attributes its success to Montalcino’s unique terroir and microclimates, which are ideal for the production of wines with great depth, longevity, and distinct character. The winery also credits its focus on quality in the vineyards and its tradition of excellence in winemaking.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe process begins with the manual selection of grapes, followed by destemming using an optical selector. Subsequently, spontaneous fermentation occurs and maceration is facilitated through frequent pressing. All these stages unfold in conical steel vats at a controlled temperature for 24 days. 35 months in oak barrel, 15 months in bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"In my mind, this is the wine that best represents the Casanova di Neri house style. With 30 months of aging in tonneaux, it shows enormous richness and texture, and the stellar fruit quality appears with more primary elegance compared to the more expensive Cerretalto that is released with an extra year of aging. That dynamic is especially pronounced in a comparison of the 2019 and 2018 vintages. The 2019 Brunello di Montalcino Tenuta Nuova has a dark vein of toasted spice, black fruit, ink, blackberry compote, licorice and star anise. Dark as night, it is exceptionally well crafted with a robust delivery of concentrated fruit and solid tannic structure.

Neither Caroline nor Jan are natives of Tuscany, as Caroline was born in the Südtirol in a large Renaissance castle known as Castel Katzenzungen. Caroline managed the family property for several years, and amongst her charges at the property was an enormous, six hundred year-old grape vine that is the oldest and largest existing grapevine in all of Europe. Jan was born in the small city of Karlsruhe in Germany, not far from the Rheinpfalz region, and studied both viticulture and oenology in Germany. He worked for several years as an oenologist in France as well before meeting Caroline and moving to Montalcino.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCaroline and Jan run Pian dell’Orino with all of the passion for excellence and purity that one would expect from a great estate dedicated to ecological responsibility and sustainable agriculture. However, the quest for a gentle carbon footprint and a wholesome vineyard ecosystem does not take precedence over a quest for great quality in the finished wines, and every step is taken to ensure that the wines of Pian dell’Orino are as fine as can be in every given vintage. In the vineyards of Pian dell’Orino only Sangiovese Grosso is grown and yields are kept to a very low level, with green harvesting practiced in every vintage to reduce yields to only four or five bunches per vine. Meticulous oversight in the vineyards during the entire growing season ensures that only the finest quality fruit is still on the vine at the time of harvest, and the harvest is conducted solely by hand. Once the grapes reach the cellar they are treated as lovingly and as naturally as possible, and no modern cellar wizardry such as cultured yeasts, extraction enzymes or added grape must is ever utilized, with the wines fermenting on their indigenous yeasts gently and thoroughly before being aged in large botti (10-50HL) for one to five years prior to bottling, depending on the wine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAged for 28 months in 25 hl oak barrels.

The Argentiera estate covers 75 hectares of breathtakingly beautiful Tuscan coast, approximately 100 km southwest of Florence. In the prestigious DOC of Bolgheri, Argentiera is the estate closest to the sea and also highest in altitude, making the land and microclimate especially well-suited to growing incredible red grapes. The estate is considered among the most beautiful in Italy, with its spectacular view of the islands of the Tuscan archipelago.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTenuta Argentiera lies on the ancient Donoratico Estate.  Formerly the summer home of the notable Serristori family of Florence, the estate is now owned by the Fratini brothers who have made significant investments in the vineyards, winery and cellars over the past decade.  Originally the site of precious metal deposits, Argentiera derives its name from the Italian noun “Argento”, or silver.  This minerality that permeates the variety of soils on the estate is characteristically present in the wines.  Argentiera has been crafting wonderful wines for over a decade, however it was only with their first Gambero Rosso Tre Bicchieri award did they start garnering the praise they deserve. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Argentiera Estate spans over 500 hectares, but only a scant 75 are dedicated to vineyards.  All of the estate’s plantings lie within the broad Bolgheri DOC. Their soils range from calcareous and stony to sandy to mineral and pebbly, lending complexity to the Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, and Syrah. The vineyards are surrounded by Mediterranean vegetation and the countryside is flush with maritime pines and olive tree groves. Argentiera has five main vineyard sites, ranging in elevation from 80-220 meters above sea level: Argentiera, Ginestre, Ventaglio, Porcarecce, and Ceccosodo. Every plot is harvested and vinified separately, exclusively in stainless steel, to preserve the character and fruity complexity lent by terroir variations. The wineries and cellars themselves are made of recycled or traditional materials such as terracotta and baked roofing tiles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrapes are hand-picked and carefully selected from the estate’s best vineyards, which are found at an altitude between 180 and 200 meters (590-600 feet). The grapes are released by gravity into tanks, each varietal vinified separately. Fermentation and maceration take place in stainless steel tanks for roughly 20-25 days at a controlled temperature never exceeding 28 C. The wine is then transferred to 225-liter French oak barrels to complete malolactic fermentation. Aging takes place over 12 months in barrel, followed by another 10 months in bottle before being released to the market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“This is big wine from a lower denomination that offers good value when compared to the estate's top-shelf releases. The Argentiera 2021 Bolgheri Rosso Villa Donoratico is up front in terms of mouthfeel with lots of immediate intensity delivered to the mid-palate. The wine is articulate and generous with thick layers of black fruit, stewed plum, sweet earth and pressed blackberry. You get everything you want from a Bolgheri Rosso. In fact, you get a wine that tastes more like a Bolgheri Superiore. The blend is 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Franc and 10% Petit Verdot. Production is 120,000 bottles.” - 94 points, Wine Advocate\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“The deep red\/purple 2021 Villa Donoratico displays a flashy and sexy style, with lush aromas of vanilla bean, blackberry liqueur, crushed sage, lavender, and cocoa cascading from the glass. Supple, rounded and inviting, it offers fantastic balance and harmonious structure. It’s a head-turner of a wine from this spectacular vintage, with all the lush fruit you come to expect from this estate as well as an exquisite finish. Give this one some time in the cellar, and the rewards will be high as it moves into its more secondary and tertiary profile with notes of polished leather and Mediterranean herbs.

In 1955, with the few savings of a lifetime, he bought the Eastern slope of the Montosoli hill, a very special place with a long tradition of Sangiovese cultivation dating back to the Middle- Age. The Montosoli hill was already famous for the production of high-quality wines thanks to its exceptional combination of soil composition and micro-climate. When the Consorzio del Vino Brunello di Montalcino was established in 1967, Nello Baricci was already considered a Master of Sangiovese. He put the first signature and received the badge #1. Moreover he registered the 1st hectare of Brunello at the Chamber of Commerce in Siena, a real pioneer in the history of Montalcino. The first bottle of Rosso di Montalcino was produced in 1968 and the first Brunello in 1971. Today Baricci is the only producer to have all his vineyards (5 Ha) in the Montosoli “Grand Cru”, plus the cellar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe estate is now managed by Nello’s grandsons, Federico and Francesco. In Montosoli the Pliocene marine-soil gives the Sangiovese vines great richness in mineral substances, plus its rocky structure (quartz, marnes, scist, fossils) guarantees a good drainage in the rainy seasons, which is a fundamental prerogative for a high-quality grape ripeness. The micro-climate is the other great component making this area so exceptional. The Montosoli Cru is located in the Northern area of Montalcino. The higher altitude works as a barrier from the heating and the warm winds coming from South. Moreover, the adjacent cooler and humid Valdarbia area to the North, contributes to lower the avarage temperature and to increase the humidity. This cooler climate makes the ripening process slower than in other areas of Montalcino. Here, usually the harvest is delayed of 15 days than in the warmer Southern sites. These characteristics give the wines perfect ripe tannins, great acidity and a very balanced sugar concentration, what translates in a Rosso full of freshness and fruitiness, and in a Brunello full of elegance, complexity, and smoothness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e100% Sangiovese. Fermented in stainless steel vats (18-20 days at 28 - 30°C), on the skins for 18-20 days with frequent pumping over. Aged in Slavonian oak barrells of 20 Hl for 10 months, with 4 months in bottle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Baricci always makes one of the best Rossos in the denomination and the estate’s 2023 doesn’t disappoint.

Though one of the oldest Tuscan wine estates, with the original farm dating back to the 14th century, today Col d’Orcia leads the charge for cutting-edge, sustainable viticulture and winemaking, thanks to its innovative proprietors, Count Francesco Marone Cinzano and his son, Santiago.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA world traveler with boundless energy, Count Cinzano has instilled a simple philosophy for making Col d’Orcia wines since taking ownership of the estate in 1992 — 20 years after the arrival of his father, Count Alberto Marone Cinzano, in Montalcino.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis raison d’etre is represented by the winery’s now-iconic logo: three rows of hills symbolizing Montalcino, rising to a hand that points toward a star. It is a steadfast reminder of Col d’Orcia’s commitment to the land, world-class winemaking, and the never-ending quest for excellence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInspired by the region’s natural beauty and biodiversity, Count Cinzano believes that “Montalcino possesses something precious that must be preserved.” Under his leadership, Col d’Orcia has become EQUALITAS Sustainable Winery certified and also earned organic certification in 2013. A decade later, the estate received the prestigious SNAIL award from Slow Wine. This honor is reserved for small-scale Italian wine producers who practice traditional techniques, protect the environment, and safeguard biodiversity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince January 2018, over 405 hectares \/ 1,000 acres are now being treated according to biodynamic practices, with the goal to increase the natural balance, health, and productivity of the crops. Every year, the winery partners with the University of Florence for research and development efforts, which include clonal selection, cover crop experimentation, erosion control, and carbon footprint reduction. Additionally, the team has installed solar panels on the rooftop of the winery, extending their eco-friendly initiatives into the energy they use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGiven Count Cinzano’s focus on quality and sustainable winemaking, it should come as no surprise that Col d’Orcia wines regularly win 90+ point ratings from leading wine critics. The estate has 150 hectares \/ 370 acres of vineyards, predominantly planted with sangiovese, Brunello’s signature red grape. With every wine, Count Cinzano strives to highlight the grape varieties’ unique qualities and ensures that they showcase the elegance, structure, and finesse for which Col d’Orcia has become internationally celebrated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eManual harvest with rigorous selection of the best grapes in the vineyard and cellar. Grapes from different parts of the vineyard were kept separate in order to select the best batches after fermentation. Fermentation occured in steel tanks at controlled temperatures, with a long, 25-day maceration period, ensuring optimal polyphenolic extraction. Malolactic fermentation in concrete. Aged three years in 25 and 75hl Slavonian and Allier oak barrels, followed by approximately three years refinement in bottle before release.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“The 2004 Brunello di Montalcino Poggio al Vento tempts the imagination with a whiff of tobacco and foreign spice, giving way to dried strawberries and hints of camphor. It displays a dark radiance, soft and pliant, with a core of fruit that's more black than red. Brisk acidity enlivens nuances of cedar and spice. Adolescent tannins still frame the experience as the 2004 finishes with excellent length and an attractive tinge of sour citrus. This continues to climb to peak maturity but is already quite pleasurable.” - 96 Points, Vinous\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“A wine of remarkable finesse and nuance, the 2008 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Poggio al Vento is exceptionally beautiful. The 2008 is refined, silky and nuanced, especially within the context of the vintage. Freshly cut flowers, cedar, tobacco and anise are all beautifully delineated throughout. I am quite impressed with how well the 2008 has come together over the last few years. Two thousand eight will be remembered as the year of the devastating mid-August hail. Quite miraculously, the Poggio al Vento emerged pretty much unscathed.” - 95 Points, Vinous\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Poggio al Vento is a gently sloping south-facing ridge at 300 to 350 metres above sea level. It sits on an ancient seabed, so the soil is very sandy and alkaline. The name translates as 'windy hill', referencing the constant sea breezes. Tasted next to the 2013 Riservas, this is a completely different beast. It's dripping with exuberant aromas of rich dark plum, warm baking spices, fennel and dried Mediterranean herbs. The palate still needs time to catch up, although there is plenty of concentrated fruit here and layers of ripe tannins in support.

The Argentiera estate covers 75 hectares of breathtakingly beautiful Tuscan coast, approximately 100 km southwest of Florence. In the prestigious DOC of Bolgheri, Argentiera is the estate closest to the sea and also highest in altitude, making the land and microclimate especially well-suited to growing incredible red grapes. The estate is considered among the most beautiful in Italy, with its spectacular view of the islands of the Tuscan archipelago.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs one example of their recent achievements, they were awarded 99 points by James Suckling for their Argentiera Bolgheri Superiore 2015.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTenuta Argentiera lies on the ancient Donoratico Estate.  Formerly the summer home of the notable Serristori family of Florence, the estate is now owned by the Fratini brothers who have made significant investments in the vineyards, winery and cellars over the past decade.  Originally the site of precious metal deposits, Argentiera derives its name from the Italian noun “Argento”, or silver.  This minerality that permeates the variety of soils on the estate is characteristically present in the wines.  Argentiera has been crafting wonderful wines for over a decade, however it was only with their first Gambero Rosso Tre Bicchieri award did they start garnering the praise they deserve. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Argentiera Estate spans over 500 hectares, but only a scant 75 are dedicated to vineyards.  All of the estate’s plantings lie within the broad Bolgheri DOC. Their soils range from calcareous and stony to sandy to mineral and pebbly, lending complexity to the Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, and Syrah. The vineyards are surrounded by Mediterranean vegetation and the countryside is flush with maritime pines and olive tree groves. Argentiera has five main vineyard sites, ranging in elevation from 80-220 meters above sea level: Argentiera, Ginestre, Ventaglio, Porcarecce, and Ceccosodo. Every plot is harvested and vinified separately, exclusively in stainless steel, to preserve the character and fruity complexity lent by terroir variations. The wineries and cellars themselves are made of recycled or traditional materials such as terracotta and baked roofing tiles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrapes are hand-picked and carefully selected from the estate’s best vineyards, which are found at an altitude between 180 and 200 meters (590-600 feet). The grapes are released by gravity into tanks, each varietal vinified separately. Fermentation and maceration take place in stainless steel tanks for roughly 25-30 days at a controlled temperature never exceeding 28\/30° C. The wine is then transferred to 225-liter French oak barrels – half of which are new – to complete malolactic fermentation. Aging takes place over 18 months in barrel, followed by another 12 months in bottle before being released to the market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Rich aromas of currants and plums with chocolate and walnut undertones.

Waiting for the perfect polyphenolic maturity of the reds led to harvesting abundant Merlot grapes endowed with remarkable fruit,’ commented Leonardo Raspini, managing director of the estate. Argentiera typically shines for its reddish fruit in this hilly southern part of Bolgheri, and here we have an intensity of red fruits, mostly cherry, which dominates the notes along with a floral touch. The style is juicy with refined, velvety tannins, zesty acidity, and a polished, elegant palate impression. The use of oak is balanced, with a soft toastiness and restrained tobacco aftertaste. Still tight at the moment, this will need bottle aging to soften it.” - 94 Points, Decanter\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer:\u003c\/b\u003e Tenuta Argentiera\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCountry:\u003c\/b\u003e Italy\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRegion: \u003c\/strong\u003eTuscany\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVarietal: \u003c\/b\u003eMerlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAppellation:\u003c\/b\u003e Bolgheri Superiore\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVintage:\u003c\/b\u003e 2020\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 750ml\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SGWS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44464431726728,"sku":null,"price":125.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0349\/2239\/7832\/files\/Photoroom_013_20260102_162026.jpg?v=1767389508"},{"product_id":"ornellaia-le-volte-2023","title":"Ornellaia - Le Volte 2023","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"c-cCNRlB c-cCNRlB-iumawX-fontVariant-heading3\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstantly enjoyable, versatile and playful, Le Volte dell’Ornellaia is all about conviviality.

Though one of the oldest Tuscan wine estates, with the original farm dating back to the 14th century, today Col d’Orcia leads the charge for cutting-edge, sustainable viticulture and winemaking, thanks to its innovative proprietors, Count Francesco Marone Cinzano and his son, Santiago. Their efforts are so well regarded, Col d’Orcia was named Environmental Advocate of the Year 2025 by Wine Enthusiast — an industry first award.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA world traveler with boundless energy, Count Cinzano has instilled a simple philosophy for making Col d’Orcia wines since taking ownership of the estate in 1992 — 20 years after the arrival of his father, Count Alberto Marone Cinzano, in Montalcino.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis raison d’etre is represented by the winery’s now-iconic logo: three rows of hills symbolizing Montalcino, rising to a hand that points toward a star. It is a steadfast reminder of Col d’Orcia’s commitment to the land, world-class winemaking, and the never-ending quest for excellence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInspired by the region’s natural beauty and biodiversity, Count Cinzano believes that “Montalcino possesses something precious that must be preserved.” Under his leadership, Col d’Orcia has become EQUALITAS Sustainable Winery certified and also earned organic certification in 2013. A decade later, the estate received the prestigious SNAIL award from Slow Wine. This honor is reserved for small-scale Italian wine producers who practice traditional techniques, protect the environment, and safeguard biodiversity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince January 2018, over 405 hectares \/ 1,000 acres are now being treated according to biodynamic practices, with the goal to increase the natural balance, health, and productivity of the crops. Every year, the winery partners with the University of Florence for research and development efforts, which include clonal selection, cover crop experimentation, erosion control, and carbon footprint reduction. Additionally, the team has installed solar panels on the rooftop of the winery, extending their eco-friendly initiatives into the energy they use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGiven Count Cinzano’s focus on quality and sustainable winemaking, it should come as no surprise that Col d’Orcia wines regularly win 90+ point ratings from leading wine critics. The estate has 150 hectares \/ 370 acres of vineyards, predominantly planted with sangiovese, Brunello’s signature red grape. With every wine, Count Cinzano strives to highlight the grape varieties’ unique qualities and ensures that they showcase the elegance, structure, and finesse for which Col d’Orcia has become internationally celebrated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs one of the original estates of Montalcino and now the largest certified organic vineyard in Tuscany, Col d’Orcia is a leader in Brunello di Montalcino helping to define and promote one of Italy’s most prestigious wines. Tradition, integrity, and sustainability are the pillars of the estate, whose classic style wines are marked by balance and elegance. Planted in 1974, the single vineyard Poggio al Vento - meaning “windy hill”- lies 350m a.s.l. Demarcated for its exceptional quality, this wine is produced only in the best vintages and is the icon of the estate. The first vintage in 1982 was aged in large barrels and it soon became apparent that only a slow, long maturation could do justice to the powerful tannins of the wine, drawn from the sandy, limestone-rich soils of this vineyard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Classic to the core, the 2016 Brunello di Montalcino Poggio al Vento takes its time in the glass, slowly gaining in depth and nuance as dusty roses and leather give way to dried strawberries, then hints of cedar and spiced blood orange. It’s elegant and refined, with polished red berry fruits and silken textural waves contrasted by sour orange notes. A core of vibrant acidity maintains a wonderfully fresh persona. This finishes long and staining yet also youthfully structured. A coating of fine tannins grips the remnants of red currant and spice. Ultimately, the 2016 Poggio al Vento leaves the taster longing for another sip while lamenting its impossibly youthful state. It will be many years before we can fully enjoy the depth and complexity currently in reserve, but I hope to be there when the day finally comes.” - 97 Points, Vinous\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Packed with vibrant cherry, strawberry, rose, mineral and tobacco aromas and flavors, this red is racy and pure, with a superb aftertaste. Defined by its bracing acidity and precise fruit flavors, this still has some tannins to resolve. So youthful and fresh, it feels like this has hardly budged in its evolution. Best from 2027 through 2045. 2,100 cases made, 300 cases imported.” - 97 Points, Wine Spectator\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“There is another leverl of refinement to the 2016 Brunello di Montalcino, with layers of pure cherry, incense, and leather woven together with rosemary, and herbs. It has fine tannins and is elegant yet structured, offering a wine with precision and length. Well-balanced, its warming spice harkens to its more southern location and sense of place.

From fathers to sons and mothers to daughters, each passing generation has held on strong to tradition, in fact - as a renowned wine journalist once claimed - “there are traditionalists and there is Padelletti.” They’ve never strayed far from aging in 30-hectoliter Slavonian botti nor has the reputable elegance and freshness of their wines varied, attributed to their high lying vineyards on the north side of town.

Inspired by his cousin and the renowned work at Sassicaia, Antinori founded Tenuta dell'Ornellaia with a singular goal: to produce world-class Bordeaux-style blends nurtured by Tuscany's renowned terroir. Over time, Masseto evolved and gained independence from the Ornellaia estate, though it is still crafted by the same winemaker and was originally conceived as the estate's \"second wine.\" But it didn't take long for Masseto to outshine Ornellaia's namesake wine, ascending to the pinnacle of the estate's offerings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe vineyard's true potential was first recognized by the world-renowned wine consultant Andre Tchelistcheff. He recognized that the blue-clay soils were perfect for Merlot production, akin to the revered vineyards of Petrus. Although Merlot was a rarity in Tuscan vineyards at the time, Tchelistcheff's guidance prompted Antinori to plant the vines that would eventually yield one of the world's most sought-after wines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“This vintage of the 2022 Masseto is 100% Merlot. The nose is pronounced, leading with its mineral aromas of crushed dark stones. It smells like dissolved minerals, delicate peppery accents, black plum, red apples, lavender perfume, and sage. The aromatics are quite profound in this vintage, and on the palate, it’s full-bodied and more structured, with ripe tannins and a good deal of depth and richness, with the minerality shining through. Long on the palate, it’s generous all the way through, and while it feels approachable upfront, more structure comes through on the finish.

This helped to preserve acidity in the grapes, giving sensational freshness to balance the rich and finely structured palate. Masseto 2022, then, combines the best of both worlds: fruit ripeness and concentration, and freshness and poise. It's not as immediately seductive as the 2021, but there is so much potential in this long-lived vintage. Scents of cool, damp earth, dark hedgerow berries, Mediterranean scrub, and cocoa and wood give a sense of what is to come once time has untangled everything. Zingy, crunchy acidity steals the show early on, segueing into a mouthful of succulent yet dense dark berries and spice imbued with plenty of energy. Then some balsamic herbs and floral notes lighten the palate, before a touch of salinity and some bitter herbs emerge on the finish, with a refrain of bright cherry. Something special.” - 98 Points, Decanter\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“A solid and structured red with blackcurrant, chocolate and walnut aromas and underlying toasted wood.

These are firm clayey soils, therefore fresh and suitable for water and mineral preservation, which slow down ripening and result in fresh and acidic wines. Eventually, the only land in that area not planted with vines was identified, and after several meetings with the previous owners, the negotiations successfully closed at the end of 1996. For this reason, the name  Ca’Marcanda derives from a Piedmontese dialect expression which can be translated as the “The House of Endless Negotiations”.
