Description: | Organically Farmed. ".has inviting aromas of plum, new leather, lavender and Mediterranean scrub. On the concentrated, velvety palate, tightly knit, close-grained tannins envelop black cherry extract, liquor soaked prune, licorice and tobacco before a mocha finish." - Kerin O'Keefe. "Collosorbos 30 hectares of south-facing vineyards lie on the road to SantAngelo in Colle from Castelnuovo dellAbate. The estate, always property of the Ciacci family since its founding in the 1850s, was once part of the larger Tenuta di Sesta farm, which was composed of 180 hectares of mainly woodlands, olive groves, wheatfields, and pasture. These days, the family focus is wine, and though the new generation has taken over the reins at the winery, the focus remains on traditionally made Brunello. The juice is fermented with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel. All of Collosorbos wines are matured in neutral Slavonian and French oak foudres, allowing a slow maturation in the familys cool cellar, built by hand beneath the walls of the estates ancient castle. At the helm of the estate is a power trio of three passionate and knowledgeable women: owner, Giovanna Ciacci and her daughters: winemaker-oenologist, Laura Sutera Sardo, and agronomist and marketing manager, Lucia Sutera Sardo." - Skurnik Wines |
