Fornacella’s Brunello di Montalcino 2020 is a traditional expression of the prestigious Brunello di Montalcino DOCG, made from 100% Sangiovese (locally known as Brunello) grown on the rolling hills around Montalcino in southern Tuscany. The 2020 vintage was shaped by a warm growing season with late summer rains that helped preserve freshness and balanced ripeness while building depth of flavor. Grapes are typically hand-harvested, fermented with native yeasts and aged for 36 months in Slavonian oak barrels, followed by further bottle aging before release, per DOCG regulations. The result is a refined, elegant wine with fresh red fruit, spice and savory structure — characteristic of the Sangiovese grown on Montalcino’s limestone-and-clay soils.

What is natural wine?
Natural wine is wine made with minimal intervention from the winemaker, using organically or biodynamically grown grapes and without the addition of chemicals or additives such as sulfites. The result is a wine that is unique, expressive, and often has a more complex and nuanced flavor profile than conventional wines. Natural wine is also often associated with sustainable and ethical farming practices, making it a popular choice for those interested in environmentally friendly and socially responsible products.
