Tenuta Col'D'Orcia "Olmaia" Cabernet Sauvignon

Deep ruby red in colour. The bouquet is warm. The taste is intense and persistent with sweet and velvety tannin.
The Col d’Orcia Estate covers some 525 hectares near Sant’Angelo in Colle in the southern part of Montalcino, including 80 hectares of vineyards and 100 ha of olive groves. Col d’Orcia is one of Montalcino’s most dynamic wineries, with massive investment in cellar technology and vineyard research. Thanks to consultant Maurizio Castelli and enologist Mario Olivero, the wines are in the modern vein: Brunello di Montalcino has the classic tarry complexity but with a supple structure of fruit and soft tannins. The cru Poggio al Vento comes from 4 hectares vineyard and is widely considered one of the finest modern expressions of Brunello. Rosso di Montalcino is excellent value with delicious ripe strawberry flavour. Ghiaie Bianche is one of the finest of Tuscany’s new crop of oak-fermented Chardonnays: now with a better balance between ripe fruit and toasty oak
