For the first time since 2000 (the debut vintage of Colleoni), in 2012, Marino Colleoni decided to separate the grapes for Brunello grown at Santa Maria (North slope of Montalcino) from grapes grown at Poggio Sant’Arna (Southern side of Montalcino). The intention is to give his clients a more realistic image of the territory (miraculous) of Montalcino. French would be translated into "Terroir". The surface of the Santa Maria vineyard is a fertile ground, balanced, 500 meters of altitude, cooler climate and ventilation almost daily. The 2012 Colleoni Santa Maria offers the nose full of fruit-cake and associated spices. The palate offers a plush and fleshy entry embedded within which one finds very fine tannin that extends throughout. This is both laid back and forward. There’s a final upturn of grip giving a focused finale to this delicious 2012 Brunello.
