Filo di Seta Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is the result of prolonged aging and rigorous selection of the best barrels from the Brunello di Montalcino Filo di Seta vintage. The 2016 vintage, aged for a total period of 63 months, which therefore obtains the denomination of Riserva, is the first of this rare and magnificent wine to be placed on the market.

The wine expresses the strong, albeit always very elegant, character of the wild and dark soul of the microclimate that characterizes the north-western area of the Municipality of Montalcino. The historic Sangiovese vineyards are located at an altitude of about 350 meters above sea level, they are looked after with dedication and passion so that each plant can give birth to harmonious and balanced products, which allow the bunches to reach optimal maturity.

Manual selection is performed in the cellar before and after destemming. Fermentation takes place in cement vats at a controlled temperature with about 20 days of maceration on the skins. Malolactic fermentation begins naturally and lasts for about 10 days before the wine is left to rest to separate it from the sediment. The wine ages in wood for about 36 months and, after being bottled, completes the refinement at a controlled temperature in the cellars of Castello Romitorio. Only 3,940 bottles were produced for the 2016 vintage and each one is individually numbered.
