Brunello di Montalcino DOCG

Riserva 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

The summit of our production.
Brunello Riserva is made only from Vigna Soccorso vineyard and is produced in the best vintages, this is when Babbo Enzo considers the Brunello Vigna Soccorso suitable for further aging in the cellar. This happens when the climatic conditions of the vintage are perfectly balanced and characterized by significant temperature swings with exceptional grape quality that contributes to having high level of complexity and harmony. It is a rare and precious wine, the result of artisanal practices, whose production process follows traditional methods. This wine is a tribute to the history of Brunello, to Montalcino’s ability to produce wines of extraordinary elegance, longevity and with marked territorial identity..

Tasting notes

The 2020 Riserva is undoubtedly an alluring, brilliant, succulent wine. Alluring because it is at once attractive and intriguing, bold and generous yet always elegant. Brilliant because it is powerful yet also fresh, lively and vibrant. Succulent thanks to the energetic tension between juiciness and the integrity of the fruit, with agile, well-defined tannins. A wine that shows a promising ability to evolve with grace and determination.
