The wine and cellar of Camigliano Montalcino

Montalcino wine

The old cellar, located beneath the walls of the old farm, is a perfect place to store vintage wines and for wine tasting. The new cellar is located completely underground in order to preserve the integrity of the landscape and to age the wine properly, in barrels and in bottles.

For this purpose, both the temperature and the humidity are maintained at optimum levels (around 14° C – 80% humidity).

The work flow has been studied closely to keep the use of pumps to a minimum.

Fermentation tanks are equipped for heating and cooling in order to maintain complete control of maceration during and after fermentation. Their special shape makes it possible to regulate the extraction of the beneficial part of the peel, keeping external intervention to a minimum.

The wooden barrels in which the wine is aged are kept in spacious areas and are primarily medium to large in size (50-60 hectoliters), the best size for the long aging process required for Brunello.
