Canalicchio di Sopra

In Montalcino, Canalicchio di Sopra takes on one of Italy's most demanding denominations, choosing to focus on just one: **Brunello di Montalcino DOCG**. Here, **Sangiovese** allows no shortcuts. The regulations stipulate a minimum alcohol content of 12.5% and mandate forty-eight months before the wine can reach the market—four years during which the wine refines, and patience becomes an integral part of the production method. Concentrating on a single label in a territory where every slope has its own reputation is a clear statement of intent: all efforts converge on that wine and how the vintage and soil shape it. The winery welcomes visitors year-round, and tasting here is not an afterthought but the core of the visit, an opportunity to experience firsthand what Montalcino's discipline truly means. Those who make the journey here will find a direct encounter with a **Sangiovese** built on long-term aging: booking a visit is highly recommended to explore the cellar and discover the vintages this hillside so generously yields.
