Tasting notes

Brutus presents itself in the glass with a beautiful intense ruby ​​red color, with purple reflections. The nose stands out with an intense floral bouquet and red berried fruits. The taste offers a beautiful intensity well balanced between roundness and a tannin that envelops the whole mouth and gives a long persistence.

Vineyard and Cellar

The result of a particularly hot year with low rainfall but sufficient to ensure excellent quality. From these premises, the harvest was brought forward to mid-September.

the grapes harvested manually, after careful selection in the vineyard, are transferred to the crusher-destemmer, thus separating the berries from the stalks. Subsequently, alcoholic fermentation takes place in the tank with selected yeasts at a temperature of 28 ° C. Maceration on the skins lasts about 20-25 days with 2 closed pumping over and one in air until the end of fermentation.
