Just a mile away from the city of Montepulciano, near the border between Tuscany and neighbouring Umbria, La Braccesca, an Antinori property since 1990, is situated in two very close, but entirely different, zones: the classic and prestigious area of Vino Nobile, and Cortona, which has made a name for itself for Syrah.

Bramasole is a deep, intense ruby red color. On the nose, elegant notes of ripe cherries, plums and sour cherries blend with delicate spicy sensations of pepper and sweet aromas of licquorice. Its palate is powerful, rich, and well-balanced with velvety, well-established tannins sustained by excellent freshness. The finish is lengthy and persistent well defined by pleasant notes of vanilla and blackberries.

Bramasole is made from the sunniest part of the vineyards in one of Cortona’s best areas for the production of premium quality Syrah. Bramasole is a wine able to evolve over time and reflect this territory and its long-standing winemaking traditions by using a new untraditional variety. Bramasole’s first vintage was 2000.
