Situated on the southwestern slopes of Montalcino, the estate is renowned above all for its Brunello, but its \u003cstrong\u003eNon Confunditur\u003c\/strong\u003e — Latin for “shall not be confounded” — has become one of Tuscany's most beloved Super Tuscan blends: a wine of generous character, immediate appeal, and unmistakable personality. Farmed organically using spurred cordon training, the estate's vineyards sit at \u003cstrong\u003e280–310 meters above sea level\u003c\/strong\u003e on alluvial soils with traces of calcareous marl, producing fruit of natural freshness and expressive depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eNon Confunditur\u003c\/strong\u003e is a blend of \u003cstrong\u003eCabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Sangiovese\u003c\/strong\u003e, sourced from estate vineyards ranging from 9 to 21 years of age. The 2024 vintage presented a complex growing season: a mild, well-watered winter gave way to a warm spring, a rainy June, and intense summer heat waves in July. Careful agronomic intervention — soil tillage, shading systems, and biostimulants — allowed the vines to maintain a regular cycle. A cooler September slowed maturation slightly, and harvest concluded on \u003cstrong\u003e16 October\u003c\/strong\u003e with excellent grape quality and naturally moderate alcohol.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMerlot was harvested first, followed by Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese. Vinification begins with a \u003cstrong\u003etwo-day pre-fermentation cold maceration\u003c\/strong\u003e, followed by fermentation and skin maceration for approximately two weeks in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. Malolactic fermentation is also completed in tank. The varieties are then blended and refined with \u003cstrong\u003ea few months in third- and fourth-passage French barriques and tonneaux\u003c\/strong\u003e — imparting subtle structure without masking the wine's fresh, fruit-forward character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2024 Non Confunditur is \u003cstrong\u003edark and saturated\u003c\/strong\u003e, with an inviting bouquet of \u003cstrong\u003eblack cherry, blackberry, and vanilla\u003c\/strong\u003e. On the palate, the wine is lush and generous, with a light grain to its texture, good concentration, and a clean, persistent finish. Fresh, versatile, and unmistakably expressive — a Super Tuscan built for pleasure now and through 2032.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cblockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\"Dark and saturated with black cherry, blackberry and vanilla flavors.
