On the palate, it has a great structure with polished tannins and a crunchy acidity.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe south facing vineyards are located 300 metres above sea level on firm clayey soils. Planted in 1984, the vines are spur-pruned and cordon trained with 4,000 vines per hectare giving yields of approximately 54 hectolitres per hectare.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe grapes were hand-picked, gently pressed, and macerated at low temperatures in stainless-steel tanks before temperature-controlled fermentation. Frequent pump-overs and punch-downs allowed for the best extraction of flavour and tannin. Post-fermentation, the wine was aged for ten months in used French and Slavonian barriques to gain complexity and roundness. The wine matured for a further three months in glass-lined cement vats prior to a static settling, bottling and release.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Fossacolle estate is located in the south of Montalcino and covers four hectares of vineyards, of which 2.5 are destined for Brunello. Such is the quality of the vineyards that Adriano Bambagioni has been able to produce wines that have won numerous accolades. Adriano learned his trade during the 10 years that he worked with Giacomo Tachis, the oenologist responsible for producing the first Super Tuscan wines.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"London End Wines","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":64624286663033,"sku":"202126824","price":24.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0506\/5405\/2509\/files\/FossacolleRossodiMontalcino.jpg?v=1789659321","url":"https:\/\/www.londonendwines.com\/products\/fossacolle-rosso-di-montalcino-2024","provider":"London End Wines","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
