ABOUT THE VINEYARDS
On Montalcino’s sun-drenched southwest slopes, Martoccia’s vines dig deep into mineral-rich, stony soil where water flows easily through the vineyard. The vines catch the full arc of the sun’s journey across the mountain and are protected from cold northern winds. The grapes grown here produce powerful, elemental wines with a vibrancy that reflects the timeless landscape where it was born. To the north, vines enjoy cool breezes in water-kissed medium-textured, clay-infused soils. This microclimate is particularly important to Martoccia during hotter years, where these grapes provide freshness that tempers ripeness with grace. Meanwhile, atop Cinigiano’s sunny, wind-swept hill, Sangiovese, Merlot, and Colorino grapes bask under a dance of light and air, producing wines with a soul-stirring warmth. With only 5,000 carefully selected Sangiovese buds per hectare, each vine produces fruit grown to express purity, precision, and restraint.
ABOUT THE WINE

ABOUT MARTOCCIA
On a chain of hills between Siena to the north and Monte Amiatato to the south lies the medieval town of Montalcino, famous for Brunello di Montalcino. The Brunelli family has called this place home for generations. After a brief stint in the city in the 1960s, following hard times in the Italian agricultural sector, Mauro Brunelli and Anna Savini returned to their ancestral home and farm. With just three hectares of farm, they laid the foundation for wine production. In the 1990s, under the guidance of their son Luca, the family produced their first wines.
Today, the Brunelli farm has 25 hectares, 15 of which are vineyards. Six hectares are registered as DOCG Brunello de Montalcino. Martoccia is committed to low-yield vineyard cultivation. The vineyards yield quantities far below the 80 hundred kilograms expected by production specifications to ensure the highest quality grapes for their wines.
