Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Vigna Paganelli is produced only in the best vintages and in limited quantity.
This wine comes exclusively from “I Paganelli” vineyard, the oldest one in the estate, planted in 1964. Its vines, used as a clonal reference when planting new vineyards, produce high quality grapes which are picked by the individual selection of the best and ripest bunches.
After the manual harvest, the must ferments at controlled temperature. Subsequently the wine spends a long time in large French oak casks and it is then aged in the bottle.

Valpolicella Ripasso Castelforte is a Venetian red wine made from Corvina, Corvinone and Rondinella grapes that undergoes a second fermentation with the addition of exhausted Amarone marc: it releases a rich and full-bodied sensory profile, full of fruity hints of black cherry and cherries, oriental spices , hints of vanilla and light balsamic tips, while the sip is enveloping and of great persistence.
Produced from Corvina, Rondinella and Corvinone grapes, with small amounts of other local grape varieties. Vinification takes place in Ganimede fermenters, which uses the carbon dioxide gas that is generated during fermentation, where the grape skins and wine are continuously mixed in order to extract colour and tannins. The wine is aged partly in stainless-steel tanks, and partly in large oak casks for twelve months. An elegant Valpolicella with excellent body that shows intense notes of blueberry, cherry, liquorice, balsamic and eucalyptus notes. It is medium-bodies with soft, velvety tannins and a pleasant, medium-long finish.
The authentic Chianti Classico. Only native vines, without Cabernet and Merlot, to maintain the typical formula of the most famous of Italian wines, without chasing the fashion that, using even South wines, darkens the beautiful ruby red of Sangioveto.

The predecessor of Amarone, Recioto is the appellation’s signature dessert wine produced using a similar method. Flavors of raisined fruit, particularly cherries, are highly concentrated. Vanilla notes add structure to this powerful, rich red. The tannins are ripe and sweet rounding out the finish. Dried clusters are vinified in stainless steel and aged 18 months in French oak barrels. Unlike its predecessor, Recioto’s fermentation is halted, thus allowing it to retain a higher concentration of residual sugar.
A Barolo of high standing, both austere and complex. Deep red garnet in color. Delicately spiced bouquet (notes of eucalyptus, licorice and menthol), mature fruit (liqueur soaked cherries, blackberries and prunes) and hints of violets and medicinal herbs. Powerful on the palate, lightly acidic and fresh. Lasting finish.
