Winemaker Notes
Brio is made from some of Castello Romitorio's youngest Sangiovese vines. It is a fresh and fruity wine, which perfectly expresses the Tuscan territory. Well-balanced and elegant, it is vibrant with energy and it is persistent on the palate. This shows how even a young Sangiovese can express authenticity and complexity.

Fine spices with a chalky edge to the hibiscus, red cherries and berries. Juicy and elegant on the palate with nicely grippy tannins melting into a crunchy, pristinely mineral and fruit-expressive finish.
Legendary in Italy for its Renaissance art and striking landscape, Tuscany is also home to many of the country’s best red wines. Sangiovese reigns supreme here, as either the single varietal, or a dominant player, in almost all of Tuscany’s best.
A remarkable Chianti, named for its region of origin, will have a bright acidity, supple tannins and plenty of cherry fruit character. From the hills and valleys surrounding the medieval village of Montalcino, come the distinguished and age-worthy wines based on Brunello (Sangiovese). Earning global acclaim since the 1970s, the Tuscan Blends are composed solely of international grape varieties or a mix of international and Sangiovese. The wine called Vine Nobile di Montepulciano, composed of Prognolo Gentile (Sangiovese) and is recognized both for finesse and power.
