Castello Romitorio Brunello di Montalcino 2020 is a refined, expressive, and critically acclaimed interpretation of classic Sangiovese from one of Montalcino’s most distinctive estates. Located in the cooler northern hills surrounding a restored medieval fortress, Castello Romitorio is known for producing Brunello that balances aromatic precision, elegance, and structure.
The 2020 vintage is widely regarded as outstanding in Montalcino, delivering wines with excellent harmony between ripe fruit, fresh acidity, and polished tannins. In this release, the estate showcases its signature style: bright red fruit, floral lift, and finely detailed structure supported by traditional large-oak ageing.
Vinification focuses on purity and balance, with fermentation in stainless steel and ageing in large Slavonian oak casks for around 24 months, followed by bottle refinement. The result is a Brunello that is both approachable in its youth and built for long-term evolution.
