GRAPES
Sangiovese
The Rosso del Palazzone is a blend of different vintages , so we may not put a year on the label. The wine is produced with Sangiovese grapes and is an authentic expression of Tuscan terroir. Whenever possible, we declassify a portion of our Brunello to be blended with the Vino Rosso barrels to result in greater complexity.
Born of our desire to return to the tradition of “Il vino di tutti i giorni” - a wine for everyday, our Rosso, a very pleasing wine of great drinkability revisits the ideas of the old customs of wine and food of the people in Tuscany and Montalcino.
This wine is fresh and fruity, yet expresses all of the elegance and energy of Sangiovese.
Brunello di Montalcino DOCG
Brunello di Montalcino is made exclusively from 100% Sangiovese grapes, a varietal bred specifically for its ability to age long and well. Typically deep garnet in color with aromas of red fruit, chocolate, violet, herbs and earthiness, the Il Palazzone Brunellos are full-bodied with ABV around 13.5-14.5%. The strong smooth tannins and ripe fruit balance juicy acidity to deliver a perfect wine for food pairing, whether drinking young or after some aging.
Le Due Porte Brunello
This wine is produced with grapes from our vineyard Le Due Porte which surrounds the cellar at 540 metres above sea level. This wine maintains the typical structure of a Brunello vecchio stampo and epitomizes finesse and elegance. Vinified to take advantage of its notable tannins and acidity to evolve beautifully over the next decade and beyond, it is juicy and complex. With only a few vintages in the bottle, this special wine is elegant and distinguished. It drinks well in its youth, while promising to age beautifully.
