The Brunello di Montalcino DOCG Ugolforte by Tenuta San Giorgio is one of the finest expressions of the renowned Sangiovese grape, which finds one of its highest vocations in the terroir of Montalcino. This Brunello is made from vineyards located in the highest areas of Montalcino, where the cool climate and significant temperature variations at night ensure the perfect ripening of the grapes. The winemaking follows traditional techniques that enhance the distinctive characteristics of Sangiovese, while aging in Slavonian oak barrels for about 36 months gives the wine great elegance and longevity. Ugolforte represents a perfect balance between the powerful tannic structure and the aromatic finesse that characterizes Brunello, making it a wine destined to evolve beautifully over time.
