Ugolforte Riserva 2018 is a rich and complex Brunello from the Castelnuovo dell'Abate area, southeast of Montalcino. The vineyards, with an average age of 20-25 years, are located at an altitude of between 250 and 400 meters above sea level on poor and rocky soils, mainly consisting of clay, tuff, sandstone and galestro. The viticulture follows environmentally friendly methods, which allow for a low spontaneous and balanced production of the grapes, harvested by hand and carefully selected. The vinification takes place in oak vats, with spontaneous fermentations guided by indigenous yeasts and long macerations. The wine is then aged for 42 months in 30 hl Slavonian oak barrels, developing an extraordinary complexity and depth.
