Tuscany is known for its landscapes, history and artistic legacy. As the birthplace of the Italian Renaissance, the region has an incredible art and architecture heritage.<\/p>\n
Tuscany is certainly the most famous of all Italian regions for its wines. Sangiovese reigns in all its forms in the vineyards of Chianti but also Montepulciano and Montalcino.<\/p>\n
It is also the land of the Super Tuscan, the Bordeaux blend style that laid the foundation of some of the greatest Italian wines.<\/p>\n
As a pairing with these wines, Tuscany cuisine is based on simplicity but high quality and certainly topped with Tuscan olive oil, recognized all over the world[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”6362″ img_size=”400×200″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
Fuligni was founded in 1923 by the Fuligni viscounts, an ancient Venetian family who moved to Tuscany around 1770. The present owner is Maria Flora Fuligni, who works side by side with her nephew Roberto Guerrini Fuligni.<\/p>\n
The property covers approx. 100 hectares east of Montalcino, historically the home to the most classic of Brunellos. The surface area under vine is 12 hectares, principally located at I Cottimelli (hence \u201cvigneti dei Cottimelli\u201d).<\/p>\n
The older vineyards are 380-450 meters above sea level, mainly east and southeast facing.<\/p>\n
Fuligni produces Rosso, Brunello, and Super Tuscans. They are all consistently ranked amongst Tuscany\u2019s finest.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
In the biggest years, the family selects a Brunello Riserva which is aged, according to regulations, for five years, three of which are in wood. The grapes primarily come from the oldest vines in the vineyard.<\/p>\n
“The aromas of dried berries, orange peel and flowers lead to a medium body with ultra-fine tannins that blend well into the wine, giving it energy and length. Beautiful ripe fruit with a juicy and flavourful finish. A classic and wonderfully proportioned young Brunello. Drinkable, but better after 2026 and beyond.”\u00a0 – James Suckling, 97 Points<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n “The Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 2019 is a seductress with a multitude of cinnamon, cloves, allspice, black cherry and a hint of laurel. On the palate, Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is radiant and classic, with lively ripe red fruit and sweet spices, perfectly accompanied by a core of brilliant acidity. Its minerality emerges on the finish, which is tactile and salty. A web of fine-grained tannins envelops the senses with youthful balance, nuances of cedar and inner rose. The 2019 is captivating and made for the cellar. What a beauty.” – Vinous, 97 Points<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n Grape:<\/strong> 100% Sangiovese<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":20317,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"yoast_head":"\n
