Description
|
The Mediterranean climate, the “terroir” of Montalcino, the nobility of Merlot, Cabernet and Syrah, the knowledge and passion of those who have always cared for the vineyards from which the wine is born. This is how Nearco was born.
On the moderate slope of the south-facing hills of Montalcino, surrounded by the austere vineyards of Brunello, you can find the plot dedicated to the international varieties that make Tuscan reds so famous. A true “cru”, where Merlot, Cabernet and Syrah have found the ideal conditions for development to express their renowned class to the best of their potential.
NEARCO is vinified with these grapes, assembled with awareness and aged for eighteen months in barrique: a new wine of great impact and structure, where the delicacy of the Merlot marries perfectly with the power of the Cabernet and the spicy fruit of the Syrah.
The mild winter accelerated the start of the growing season, which was then slowed down by the abundant spring rains, bringing everything back to normal. From the second ten days of June, and throughout the month of July, there was a gradual and beneficial rise in temperatures. This was followed by an August with significant temperature ranges and no rain, optimal conditions for the perfect ripening of the grapes.

Montalcino, Sant'Angelo hill, the hill overlooking the Orcia River. Medium-textured soils with the presence of limestone pebbles, hilly with a south-south-west orientation.
|
| Grapes |
All grapes from our own vineyards: 55% Merlot, 20% Petit Verdot, 15% Syrah, 10% Cabernet. The choice during the harvest is based on the search for a balanced maturity for all the varieties except for Syrah where a slight over-ripening is preferred to increase the complexity of the wine.
