Brunello di Montalcino DOCG

Vigna Poggio Cerrino

SELECT VINTAGE

Un vino riscoperto.Le lontane e nobili origini di Podere Soccorso ci hanno ispirato a riprodurre la veste grafica dell’etichetta, riproporre la tecnica enologica mantenendo le caratteristiche della tradizione locale, le stesse che più di centocinquanta anni prima venivano già riconosciute e premiate in Italia ed all’estero, con lo sguardo aperto al futuro. Il Brunello di Montalcino Vigna Soccorso è un cru da uve 100% Sangiovese ottenute esclusivamente dalla vigna dell’unità poderale omonima. Il terreno è limoso/sabbioso, sciolto ma con inclusioni di scheletro da rocce vulcaniche, areniti con presenza di tischi. Sotto lo strato sciolto di terreno sono presenti grandi rocce magmatiche e sedimentarie. La densità di impianto è pari a 4500 piante per ettaro.

 

Brunello di Montalcino DOCG Vigna Soccorso: di questa annata abbiamo prodotto 6700 bottiglie da 750ml e 150 bottiglie Magnum da 1,5L.

Description

The first Brunello.
There is a special bond between Babbo Enzo and Poggio Cerrino because it was from this vineyard he produced his first Brunello in the1980. This is why Poggio Cerrino tells a story of personal growth and of a territory, of social emancipation, it speaks of a solid present and a better future. It is the Brunello of optimism, of will, of the courage of enterprise and the strength of a dream. From the 2017 vintage, it is the estate’s other cru, as like the Brunello Vigna Soccorso. It is made with grapes from a single vineyard in the “Canalicchio” area northeast of Montalcino. Here the soil is predominantly clayey with a lot of limestone and skeleton, residues of calcium agglomerates and presence of fossils but also sandy with marl schist and alberese stones. Plant density is 3,000-3500 vines per hectare.

Tasting notes

Il Brunello Vigna Poggio Cerrino 2021 is the child of a great vintage. It shares traits with the 2019 in terms of elegance, finesse and balance; unlike the more ostentatious 2019, this wine appears more vibrant and lively, with greater freshness and acidity. The result is a more prominent personality, which we liked very much.
