Product Profile Sheet 750ml
336 hectares on the hills facing Montalcino and its Brunello, Chianti Classico and the area of Nobile di Montepulciano. A crossroads of great red wines. A land that gives birth to white truffles and an extraordinary extra virgin olive oil, inherited by Donatella Cinelli Colombini in 1998. Currently at Fattoria del Colle we grow 160 hectares of cereal crops, 6 hectares of olive groves and 17 hectares of vineyards with Sangiovese, Merlot, and Traminer varieties as well as Foglia Tonda an old autochthonous vine abandoned for more than a century, that we have re-launched. The Colle’s altitude at 204 m above sea level and the great difference in temperature between day and night due to the vicinity of the “Crete Senesi” determine the particular wealth of aromas in the wines of this area that are intense, complex and extremely fine.
“The bouquet is more approachable and immediately appealing. This is a fantastic wine to eat in the near term. I can’t help but think of how good it would taste across from one of those juicy, boutique burgers you find at the best restaurants. The mouth feel is soft and creamy with integrated tannins from both the fruit and the oak used.” – Monica Larner, February 28th 2017
