Region: Italy - Tuscany - Brunello
Grapes: 100% Sangiovese Grosso
Alcohol: 14.5%
Notes on the Wine
The Brunello from this historic estate is made from Sangiovese Grosso cultivated on 124 acres of vineyards that produce yields far below the legal limit. Camigliano ensures this elegant Brunello embodies the terroir by utilizing carefully selected clones and selecting Sangiovese from the vineyards with the best exposition.
Notes on the Producer
Acquired in 1957 by entrepreneur Walter Ghezzi, very fond of agriculture, Camigliano was converted to the production of high quality wines, in particular of Brunello di Montalcino.
His son Gualtiero put a lot of efforts into the modernisation of the company (today it comprises 530 hectares of which 90 are vineyards) and the valorisation of the territory. Through the construction of the new underground cellar and the demolition of the previous building, Camigliano recoved streets and panoramic views, and regained an astonishing landscape on the high Maremma and the metal-bearing hills.
The old residences in the village, all restructured, are now part of the farm houses, which provide visitors not only with a pleasant accommodation but also with a unique experience in close contact with the nature.
