Vigna Spuntali is Val di Suga's top wine, it is all sourced from their highly desired Spuntali vineyard. The fruit that comes off this vineyard always produces great wine, which is why when the vintage is great, the way 2009 was, you take as much as you can get! This wine is a couple of years into its drinking window and will impress for another 5 to 10 years. Do not miss what might be your last opportunity to get your hands on this incredible vintage.
Val di Suga’s history began in 1969, when a company owned by Aldo Moro bought agricultural land to the north of Montalcino and built a manufacturing and retail business on it. Previously used for forage, these lands were gradually made into vineyards as they changed hands a number of times until, in 1982, Val di Suga began making wines in its own winemaking cellars. In 1988 the company bought one of the most famous of Montalcino’s single vineyard sites, Spuntali, around 15 hectares of vineyard acknowledged by all to be one of the best Brunello terroir zones, on a south-west facing site.
