List of products by brand Gianni Brunelli

In 1987, Gianni Brunelli returned to Montalcino and managed to fulfill his family's dream, buying the company "Le Chiuse di Sotto", the one where his father Dino worked. Even today, in his memory, he wanted to keep part of the vineyards planted by his father in 1947. The "Le Chiuse di Sotto" company is located in the homonymous town north of Montalcino. The company consists of a single body of 5 hectares, of which 2 are planted with vineyards while the remaining two and a half hectares are planted with olive groves, from which we produce our extra virgin olive oil, cold pressed with stone millstones. . In the mid-90s, Gianni and Laura bought Podernovone. Located on the southeastern slopes of Montalcino, it consists of a property of 10 hectares of which four and a half hectares, planted with Sangiovese and half a hectare of Merlot, planted in 1997, the first for Brunello and Rosso di Montalcino, and the last for the constant love. Podernovone is made up of four vineyards, Olmo, Oliva, Quercia and Gelso. The company is managed and directed under all technical and organizational profiles by the owner herself, collaborating with internal and family staff.

The Chiuse di Sotto estate, on the north side of Montalcino, characterized by a cool climate and medium-textured soil, is a historic estate in Montalcino and represents the original nucleus of the company that belonged to Gianni Brunelli's father and which he repurchased. in 1987. Podernovone, on the other hand, acquired later, is located in the south-eastern quadrant of the denomination, near Sant'Antimo, on clayey soils that enjoy a warmer and more ventilated climate. The wines of Le Chiuse di Sotto are characterized by the extraordinary quality they express each year and by the ability to convey the complex terroir of Montalcino: in the vineyard the principles of organic farming are followed and only organic and natural fertilizers are used; in the cellar the fermentation starts spontaneously with the indigenous yeasts naturally present on the grape skins and only large barrels are used (as per tradition) to better preserve the characteristics of the grapes. Brunello di Montalcino is of great elegance, has a unique personality and represents a perfect synthesis of the two territorial realities of the company
