About this wine

Gualto is Camigliano's prestige Brunello di Montalcino Riserva, produced only in exceptional vintages from a selection of the estate's best Sangiovese lots. It undergoes an extended aging regime of around 36 months in 30-hectoliter oak barrels followed by roughly two additional years in bottle, reflecting the DOCG Riserva requirement of a minimum six years from harvest to release. Wine Spectator has repeatedly scored vintages of Gualto in the 93-94 point range.

Beginner's Note

Not the first Brunello to try - this is Camigliano's reserve-tier wine for those ready to explore serious aging potential.

Sommelier's Note

"Gualto is Camigliano's answer to Montalcino's greatest vintages - succulent cherry and leather layered over a frame built to age for decades."

Food Pairings

Pairs with slow-roasted lamb, porcini mushroom dishes, and long-aged Tuscan pecorino; substantial enough for truffle-based courses.

When to drink it

Cellar-worthy special occasions - anniversaries, formal dinners, collector's tastings.
