Producer Information

Uccelliera is a small estate and winery on the southeast slopes of the Tuscan hilltop village of Castelnuovo del’Abato in southern Montalcino. It is highly regarded for its red wines made from Sangiovese, most notably its Brunello di Montalcino Riserva. The winery was established by owner and winemaker Andrea Cortonesi, when he bought the Uccelliera farm in 1986. At the time it was a four-hectare (10-acre) property with less than a single hectare planted with vines. After some expansion and renovation, the modern property now extends to seven hectares (17 acres). Sangiovese dominates the plantings for use in the Brunello and Rosso di Montalcino wines, as required by appellation laws.
