Banfi 2023 Rosso di Montalcino

Castello Banfi was established in 1978 and has become one of Montalcino’s most influential estates, recognized for combining extensive vineyard research with modern winemaking practices. The estate spans a wide range of vineyard sites across southern Tuscany, allowing Banfi to highlight the diverse expressions of Sangiovese found throughout the region.
The 2023 vintage experienced a warm growing season with favourable ripening conditions that encouraged aromatic intensity and supple tannin development. Careful vineyard management and temperature-controlled fermentation helped maintain balance and vibrancy in the finished wine.
