Olio Extravergine di Oliva Collosorbo 50 cl

Description

History

Collosorbo was born in 1995 through the hereditary division of the Tenuta di Sesta, a historic and consolidated company in Montalcino. The property has belonged to the Ciacci family since 1850. The first vintage of Brunello dates back to 1966 and was produced by Giuseppe Ciacci in the same year in which the Consorzio del Brunello and the DOC were established. At the head of the company today we find Giovanna Ciacci and her two daughters Lucia and Laura. Lucia takes care of the commercial part while Laura is an oenologist and follows the wine-growing and oenological part of the company. The estate is located in the southern area of the denomination, between Sant’Angelo in Colle and Castelnuovo dell’Abate and works a vineyard area of 30 hectares of vineyards at an altitude of about 250 m a.s.l.; within the corporate lands, thanks to the richness and diversity of the soils, even very close parcels of Sangiovese manage to give very different sensations and nuances, an element that allows to obtain perfumed, complex and balanced wines.
