The Brunello di Montalcino di Caparzo is produced from 100% Sangiovese Grosso grapes sourced from company-owned vineyards located in various areas of the Montalcino wine region (SI), each characterized by different terroirs. The soils range from sandy-clayey to schist-sandy and stony. The altitude is between 220 and 300 meters above sea level. In the cellar, the alcoholic fermentation of the must took place in stainless steel at a controlled temperature of 18-20°C for 7 days, accompanied by a maceration phase of the must on the skins for 10-15 days. Aging occurred for 36 months in large barrels plus an additional 4 months in the bottle.
