WINE MAKING PROCESS
Podere Brizio Rosso di Montalcino 2022 is produced using traditional winemaking methods. The grapes undergo spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts, a process that highlights the natural character of the Sangiovese. Following fermentation, the wine is aged for 12 months in large, untoasted French oak barrels (54 HL). A minimum of three months of bottle aging precedes release. The estate practices certified organic viticulture, with yields kept intentionally low and only the best clusters selected to ensure quality and concentration.
