Vigna Soccorso

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

A rediscovered wine.
The ancient and noble origins of Podere Soccorso inspired us to reproduce the graphic design of the label. The winemaking process maintain the characteristics of the local tradition, the same ones that more than a hundred and fifty years before were already recognized and awarded in Italy and abroad but with an open eye to the future. It is a cru from 100% Sangiovese grapes obtained exclusively from the vineyard of Soccorso. The soil is silty/sandy, loose but with skeleton from sedimentary rocks, arenites with the presence of tisks. Large magmatic and sedimentary rocks are present beneath the loose layer of soil. The planting density is 4500 plants per hectare.

Tasting notes

The personality of this cru surprises us every year, becoming increasingly recognizable in its diversity. In this vintage, the Vigna Soccorso vineyard never suffered climatic stress, and the wine in the glass immediately shows great balance between power and elegance, strength and generosity. Today it is certainly still young, but with enormous aging potential.
