'Vigna del Lago' Brunello di Montalcino DOCG Val di Suga 2016

The Vigna del Lago Brunello di Montalcino DOCG is a wine that is produced at the Val di Suga cellar in Montalcino. The company stands out for the production of labels that are able to make the most of the area. The grapes come from Sangiovese vines, grown on slightly sloping soils rich in clay, facing North/West at about 280 meters above sea level. The proximity of the lake influences the surrounding microclimate, making it mild and giving greater structure to the crops. In the vineyard, the spurred cordon training system is preferred. The next step after the harvest is that of fermentation followed by maturation in oak barrels for 24 months. Before being put on the market, the wine ages in concrete tanks for 6 months and 18 months in the bottle. Vigna del Lago Brunello di Montalcino DOCG is a full-bodied and intense wine, which is well suited for immediate drinking, but can evolve in the cellar for a few years, if correctly stored.
