Detailed info
Just steps from the historic village of Montalcino, Fornacina Estate continues the art of Brunello with rare sincerity. Founded in 1981 by Ruggero Biliorsi, the estate is now run by his sons, guardians of a family legacy steeped in passion and respect for Tuscan traditions. Aged with care for 24 months in Slavonian oak barrels, the wine boasts a broad, persistent structure. A heavyweight you’ll want to pair with a grilled cut of meat.
