Product Notes

San Polino Helichrysum Brunello di Montalcino DOCG is a wine that has been internationally recognized for its outstanding quality. Made from 100% Sangiovese grapes, the wine is aged for 36 months in oak barrels before being released for sale. The aroma of the wine is characterized by fragrances of red ripe fruits, wild berries, spices and toasted oak. The palate is smooth and well-structured, with a long-lasting finish and gentle tannins. The wine's unique feature is the addition of Helichrysum flowers to the oak barrels during the aging process, which imparts a delicate and distinctive floral note to the wine. This wine pairs well with grilled meats, hearty pasta dishes and aged cheeses.

About the Winery

San Polino

The story of San Polino began as early as the 10th century, according to what records suggest. A period existed when the Barbarians attacked the land and forced Roselle’s Etruscan city’s inhabitants to move and seek refuge in Sant’Antimo and the rich people’s protective areas. There is a significantly high probability that the first grapevines got planted on the fertile and superior slopes owned by San Polino during this time.
