The 2014 vintage in Montalcino was far from easy. The weather tested the patience of winegrowers, with rain and cool summers. Yet, through this challenge, the people of Altesino managed to bottle a Brunello di Montalcino Magnum that speaks of resilience and meticulous attention to detail. The large format, the Magnum, is not only impressive at the table but also serves more people and evolves more slowly and harmoniously over time.
The story of Altesino is intertwined with the very journey of Brunello itself. It was among the first wineries to believe in the potential of Sangiovese (their first Brunello was released in 1972) and helped make Brunello known worldwide. Brunello di Montalcino 2014 Altesino ages for two years in oak barrels and then for four months in the bottle. The result is generous yet elegant, with an aging potential that exceeds 20 years.
