Description

The “regular” Brunello Fuligni, aged as required by law for 4 years, of which 2 and a half and sometimes even 3, in wood, has characteristics of excellent longevity, but is also intended for more immediate consumption, compared to the “Riserva”, with its elegant synthesis of fruit and spicy hints. The Brunello Fuligni is the result of important, carefully selected grapes, coming from low yields per hectare and was not produced in years in which the quality level of the grapes harvested did not seem adequate to maintain the company's high standards.

Awards

Tasting notes

Ruby red in color with evident garnet reflections.
Elegant and complex on the palate, vigorous and persistent.
Intense on the nose with notes of undergrowth, aromatic herbs, ripe cherry and fine balsamic and mineral nuances.

Cellar

The Fuligni estate extends over approximately one hundred hectares, entirely cultivated, in an almost continuous strip of land on the north-eastern side of Montalcino, where the most classic Brunello production has historically arisen.
The vineyards cover a total area of ​​fourteen hectares and are located primarily in the “I Cottimelli” area at an altitude ranging from 380 to 450 metres above sea level.
Here the land, predominantly exposed to the north-east, belongs entirely to the geological formation of S.Fiora (galestro), of Eocene origin and is made up of a predominantly stony skeleton.
Other vineyards, more specifically intended for the production of Rosso di Montalcino and IGT wines, are located further east, around the eighteenth-century villa “San Giovanni a Semiti”, now used as an agritourism facility.

The oenological care of Fuligni wines is entrusted to the vast experience of Dr. Paolo Vagaggini, one of the leading experts on the Tuscan Sangiovese grape.
In reality, the Vagaggini family relationship dates back to the 1960s, when the consulting firm of the same name was run by Dr. Francesco Vagaggini, Paolo's father.
But the relationship with the Vagaggini family has recently been enriched by the young experience of Dr. Jacopo, a graduate of Oxford and specialized in Bordeaux, who works closely with his father.
