Description
What kind of wine it is
Brunello di Montalcino Paesaggio Inatteso is a still organic red wine made from Sangiovese Grosso grapes. Distinguished by an intense ruby red colour, it reveals a complex aromatic profile rich in notes of red fruit and undergrowth, enhanced by elegant balsamic hints. On the palate, it is elegant and structured, with pronounced savouriness, balance, and deep persistence. It pairs perfectly with dishes based on beef, pork, game, and mature cheeses. To best enhance its qualities, it is recommended to decant for about an hour.
Where it comes from
This wine originates in the heart of Montalcino, Tuscany, and is produced by the Camigliano winery. The estate manages its vineyards following a strictly organic and sustainable philosophy. The unique local soil and climate allow the Sangiovese Grosso to achieve extraordinary aromatic concentration. The deep connection with the Tuscan countryside gives rise to an authentic wine, endowed with a solid structure and remarkable ageing potential, capable of maturing beautifully in the cellar for over ten years.
How it is produced
Harvesting usually takes place in the first two weeks of October. Vinification involves fermentation in stainless steel at a controlled temperature, with racking and délestage practices. After a 30-day maceration and the completion of malolactic fermentation, ageing continues for 30 months in French and Slavonian oak barrels. This long maturation defines the wine’s structure, which has a dry extract of 31.1 g/L and a total acidity of 5.5 g/L. The ideal serving temperature to appreciate every nuance is between 18 and 20°C.

The castle, a fortified homestead, had already made a name for itself in the 13th century with consistent demographic growth, and, in 1278, there were reportedly 150 families.
After depending on the Abbey of Sant’Antimo for a period of time, during the year 1200 Camigliano was lured into the orbit of Siena, and, in the following years, the heads of some of the most important families (Gallerani, Bonsignori) carried out a great newly-noble patrimonial expansion destined to displace the lay people and clergy and to suppress the growing success of the small country property.
Noble presence is felt even in Camigliano which passes under the authority of these families for many years in the 13th century, but the fact remains that the local community would never disappear from the populous Castle of Camigliano, where a strong rural component seems to have maintained its own vitality for some centuries.
The current manor house was built inside the entry gate (called "Borgone") of the old "castle" making the most of the ancient walls that surrounded the homestead. The symbol of Camigliano: the camel, found on a seal dating to the 13th century, can perhaps be connected to the influence of the papacy in the area, and there is speculation of connection to the movements of the Crusades that reached the Holy Land.
