La Torre, Brunello di Montalcino,DOCG,2018

The La Torre winery was founded in 1976 by Giuseppe Ananìa who purchased the La Torre estate from the Ciacci family of Montalcino. Until a few years earlier the estate had been worked as a farm by sharecroppers with livestock cherry trees wheat and mixed olive trees and vines.

While Giuseppe planted the first vineyard two and a half hectares in area in 1976 it was up to his son Luigi to expand it in 1999 by another three hectares. Now the vineyard totals about five and a half hectares and surrounds the house on the south and west.
