About Martoccia Rosso di Montalcino DOC
Martoccia Rosso di Montalcino DOC is a gorgeous ruby-red wine. Delicate floral aromas drift alongside hints of warm spice and mint. On the palate, it delivers notes of black cherry and wild berry, spice, and vanilla with fine tannins and balanced acidity. This wine might be considered Brunello’s little brother but it stands alone! Made with handpicked, destemmed Sangiovese. Fermenation begins with a short cold maceration and then 20 days of natural malolactic fermentation in stainless steel.
About Martoccia
On a chain of hills between Siena to the north and Monte Amiatato to the south lies the medieval town of Montalcino, famous for Brunello di Montalcino. The Brunelli family has called this place home for generations. After a brief stint in the city in the 1960s, following hard times in the Italian agricultural sector, Mauro Brunelli and Anna Savini returned to their ancestral home and farm. With just three hectares of farm, they laid the foundation for wine production. In the 1990s, under the guidance of their son Luca, the family produced their first wines.
Today, the Brunelli farm has 25 hectares, of which 15ha are vineyards. Six hectares are registered as DOCG Brunello de Montalcino. Martoccia is committed to low-yield vineyard cultivation. The vineyards yield quantities far below the 80 hundred kilograms expected by production specifications to ensure the highest quality grapes for their wines.
