Brunello

About the Producer:
Piero Palmucci
of Poggio Di Sotto employs the service of Giulio Gambelli, Italy’s
most respected wine taster. The wine industry has bestowed upon
Gambelli the title of "Master Taster" (Maestro Assaggiatore).
Gambelli also consults for Soldera-Case
Basse and Montevertine.
Gambelli's work has focused single-mindedly on the improvement
of Tuscan sangiovese wines like Brunello di
Montalcino. His methods and ideas emphasize the importance of ripe,
clean fruit
and cleanliness
in
all phases
of
production. These wines are successful because the high standards
of the proprietors match the winemaker's. Gambelli's wines
have redder and less saturated coloration, more brilliant and more
volatile red fruit aromas, higher alcohol levels, higher acidity
levels, and tannins that are harder and more persistent on the
finish. These wines age gracefully and are multidimensional.
