SummuS Banfi Castle

SummuS Castello Banfi is a wine of great prestige, produced in the region of Tuscany, more specifically in the area of Montalcino, famous for the production of high quality wines. This area is characterized by a Mediterranean climate, with mild winters and hot, dry summers, which is ideal for growing vines. From an agronomic point of view, the vineyards from which SummuS comes are located on hills with a southwest exposure, at an altitude of about 220 meters above sea level. The soil is predominantly clay and limestone, with the presence of skeleton, characteristics that help give the wine its structure and complexity. The production of SummuS follows a very careful enological process. The grapes used are Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah, harvested by hand and carefully selected. After harvesting, the grapes are destemmed and crushed, and the resulting must is fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. This is followed by maceration on the skins for a period of 12-14 days for Sangiovese and 14-16 days for Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah. After fermentation, the wine is aged in French oak barrels for a period of about 12 months. Subsequently, the wines are blended and the resulting blend is aged in bottles for at least 10 months before release. SummuS Castello Banfi is a wine that best expresses the tradition and excellence of the Tuscan territory, thanks to the care and attention with which it is produced, from the vineyard to the bottle.
