| Aging | After racking, the clean wine remains in steel for a further few months during which it undergoes malolactic fermentation in the normal way, at the end of which it is put into casks. For maturing the wine, the company has always used large 18/22 hectolitre barrels of medium toasted Slavonian oak. Today the barrels are divided into two cellars: one directly on the estate where the older barrels are located and the other located in the historic centre of the village under the family house where the newer barrels are located and where tastings of the vintages are usually held with customers. |

| Color | The ruby colour of the young Brunello fades as it evolves, revealing light garnet notes that change with the age of the wine. |
| Perfume | Intense aromas of undergrowth with clear red berry and ripe cherry fruit together with notes of taste-olfactory elegance resulting from this perfect combination of factors. |
| Taste | The structure of the wine is rich in dry extract up to 32/33 gr/l its tannins are present but soft and its persistence in the mouth is long. |
| Pairings | Brunello is excellent with roasted red meats and skewers of wild game while the older vintages improve over time even as meditation wines. |

The different geological nature of soils corresponds to as many expressive variables in grapes matured. The consolidated relationship between Giulio and Attilio Pagli, company winemaker, guarantees continuity in the quality of production: "If the Brunello does not deserve, I only make Red"; So Julius clearly expresses, revealing an almost maniacal attention to the quality of the grapes. Moreover, it is only from perfectly matured grapes that it is possible to produce a great wine, capable of achieving excellence in every year of its marketing.
The balance and the perfect balance of wines comes from a rare mixture of freshness (we are 420 at sea level), exposure to the morning sun (southeast), clayey matrix and plant density not exaggerated to allow Plants have plenty of space available, favoring air circulation.

| Wine making | Vinification takes place in the estate's cellar next to the vines in 40/35 hectolitre stainless steel vats and usually lasts 28/30 days depending on the vintage. Fermentation takes place spontaneously in the days following the harvest in rooms that do not have air conditioning, which means that the high temperatures need to be regulated with frequent pumping over throughout the day and often with délestage, which allows the wine boiling in other tanks to cool down. |
| Aging | After racking, the clean wine remains in steel for a further few months during which it undergoes malolactic fermentation in the normal way, at the end of which it is put into casks. For maturing the wine, the company has always used large 18/22 hectolitre barrels of medium toasted Slavonian oak. Today the barrels are divided into two cellars: one directly on the estate where the older barrels are located and the other located in the historic centre of the village under the family house where the newer barrels are located and where tastings of the vintages are usually held with customers. |
