Canalicchio di Sopra Description
Produced only for exceptional vintages, the 2019 Brunello di Montalcino DOCG Riserva “Canalicchio di Sopra” comes exclusively from the vineyard Vigna Vecchia Mercatale, currently the oldest of our vineyards planted in 1988. Thanks to its terroir and age, the vineyard, located in the “Canalicchio” Cru, guarantees great structure and sapidity in its wines. Facing north, it is subject to winds from the east which bring out the balsamic aromas, typical of the Cru. Wines from this vineyard achieve that optimal balance between fruit and acidity, essential requirements for long ageing. This is a wine which pays tribute to the greatness of the vintage and the exceptionality of the harvest through a refined elegance which develops in persistence and important tannic texture. With the 2019 Riserva, we will release our nineteenth Riserva on the market since 1996, showing the rarity and importance that we dedicate to this wine.
