The Salvioni family and their wines embody the essence of what makes artisan Brunello so special. Totally hand made, from the vineyard to the cellar and into the bottle, these wines have much more in common with the great reds of Piedmont and Burgundy than they do with the vast majority of what comes out of Montalcino these days. Up until a few years ago, labeling was still done by hand because the cellar was not equipped with power outlets that could handle modern equipment. Production is miniscule, which means bottles disappear from the market as quickly as they arrive.

This wine was tasted as part of a complete vertical held in February 2016.

Salvioni remains one of the most venerable families in Montalcino. With the exception of a labeling machine purchased a few years ago, not much has changed here over the years. Production remains tiny, only a maximum of four casks of wine are produced in each vintage. In lesser years a cask is sold as Rosso, but otherwise, there is just one wine here, and it is often one of the very best in Montalcino. The Salvioni Brunello is distinguished by its extraordinary purity of fruit, inner perfume and overall texture. Readers who want to discover the very best in artisan Brunello should put Salvioni at the top of their lists. Readers who want to see and hear from Giulio Salvioni directly might enjoy this short video interview shot during my most recent visit.
