In 1911, the family moved to Podere Poggi, a tenant farm on the Villa Santa Restituta estate working the land by sharecropping (a typical form of Tuscan farm management).  In the years that followed, the family moved several times from one country home to another on the Villa Santa Restituta estate until they finally arrived at the Caprili farm home in 1952.  The family took over Caprili with all their livestock and continued to work the land by sharecropping.  In 1965, the Bartolommei family decided to buy the property from the Castelli-Martinozzi family, owners of Villa Santa Restituta estate.  In the same year, 1965, they planted the first vineyard, still called “Madre” to this day, where the clones for the new vineyards planted on the estate are selected.

Our agronomic approach is to use good agricultural practices such as green manure and reducing the usage of syntetic chemical products.

The 'AdAlberto' Brunello di Montalcino spends 48 months in big barrels by Slavonian oak followed by 6 months in bottle. When young is austere and has a solid tannic structure, reaches its peak after 5-7 years in bottle thanks to the depth and concentration that allow it to achieve a well-balanced flavor profile.
