PRODUCT INFORMATION

Brunello di Montalcino DOCG
CastelGiocondo is produced from an uncompromising selection of the finest Sangiovese grapes, in a vineyard whose ideal
elevation, well-drained soils, and southwest-facing exposure yield all of the qualities that converge to produce the finest
expression of this noble grape variety. It is an elegant, well-balanced wine of magnificent structure.

Climatic trend
The 2013 growing season saw regular rainfall throughout spring and early summer, which helped the grapevines develop
perfectly. The second half of the summer was quite warm, but without the type of heat spikes that could have
compromised the grape’s ripening. The ripening of the berries benefited from alternating warm days and cool nights,
producing ripe grapes rich in phenolic substances – e.g. anthocyanins and tannins - whilst preserving their delicate
aromas.
