The Brunello di Montalcino "Ugolforte" of San Giorgio is an extraordinary wine, produced with the best grapes from the vineyards located in Castelnuovo dell'Abate. The vinification of this wine begins with a long fermentation in large steel tanks, characterized by a prolonged contact between the skins and the must, to extract the best aromatic and structural components of grapes.

The aging continues in first and second-pass barriques for twelve months, followed by a further two years of ageing in large Slavonian oak barrels. This process gives the wine a remarkable complexity and depth, making it as enveloping as reactive. The name "Ugolforte" is inspired by a famous brigand who, in the 12th century, led the people of Montalcino against the occupation of Siena, a symbol of courage and endurance that is reflected in the robust and determined character of this wine.

At first sight, the "Ugolforte" Brunello di Montalcino has a dark ruby red colour, enriched by light garnet reflections. The bouquet is broad and complex, offering hints of fruit in jam like cherry and plum, accompanied by notes of mint, sweet tobacco and cocoa. On the palate, the wine is harmonious, relaxed and enveloping, with an impeccable balance and a rare elegance. The finish is long and persistent, with a subtle spicy note that further enhances its depth.

This Brunello di Montalcino is a perfect example of elegance and structure, able to improve with time and offer a memorable tasting experience. Perfect to pair with red meat, game and aged cheeses, it is a wine that lends itself to special occasions and moments of reflection.
