DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
The Le Macioche vineyard is located in the heart of the hilly territory of Siena (southern part of Tuscany) halfway between the Tyrrhenian Sea and the the Central Apennines. The Tenuta di Giova with its southern orientation, a good supply of clay is very rich in skeleton due to the presence of outcropping galestro rocks. The balance between exposition, altitude and type of soil, give Brunello the full expression of red fruits, tannin and slight acidity traits.
2015 was a legendary vintage. The winter and spring rain provided important hydric reserves and the alternating sunny and windy days allowed a raid and homogenous growth of the grape clusters during the months of May and June. A generally hot summer favored a good phenolic maturation of the clusters. September’s northerly winds and temperate climate allowed for maturation and ripening to conclude in an optimal manner.
