Brunello di Montalcino DOCG, Azienda il Cocco
Since 1700 the Cocco is part of the property of the Bindi family, today the company is managed by Giacomo Bindi, one of the youngest winemaker in Montalcino, who together with his brothers has intensified the production of wine and oil.
The farm, 500 mt above sea level, is totally organic, they use biological treatments with low doses of copper and sulfur and they use natural fertilization according to ancient farming traditions using inter-row space with crops of wheat, barley and broad beans in order to provide organic substances and prevent the leaching of land.
The Brunello di Montalcino, is aged 3 years in French, Slavonia, Ungheria oak tonneaux, in order to achieve an optimal balance and complexity. At the end of this period, before bottling, the wine is stored again in steel vats to further refine it and give way to the “flavors” of different woods to blend and create a unique complexity that distinguishes their Brunello.
A further refinement in the bottle ( 6 months) completes the work of the cellar to bring in the glass a fruity wine with an important structure.
