Corked Wines
While we make every attempt to provide wines of good quality and provenance, we cannot guarantee the personal 'drinkability' for every bottle we sell. It is the industry standard that older wines are purchased "as is" and at the buyer's risk as to the drinkability of the wine. This policy includes "corked" wines (those tainted with TCA and smell of wet cardboard). This wine fault occurred during the cork selection process and is completely out of our control. For the aforementioned reasons, no refund or exchange will be granted.

This Cuvee was born in 1970s when the winery was driven by the courage essential to every entrepreneur, they planted the first Merlot shoots in unusually clay-rich terrain. This was a major challenge that resulted in the creation in 1991 of Lamaione, a solitary horseman, proud and powerful, riding through Montalcino.
The 2015 was dry and sunny spring led followed by hot summer which resulted in perfect maturity, with an excellent concentration. The season offered us Merlot grapes, from which a harmonious wine was obtained, rich in structure, with complex aromas and a lengthy ageing. Wine is ages for 24 months in barriques followed by a further aging period of 12 months in the bottle.
