The producer
Le Chiuse
Le Chiuse sits on the north face of the Montalcino hill, on vineyards that belonged to the Biondi Santi family, the house credited with creating Brunello. Simonetta Valiani, Fiorella Biondi Santi's daughter, and her husband Nicolò Magnelli began bottling under the Le Chiuse name in the early 1990s, and their son Lorenzo has run the cellar since 2006. The estate farms its 100% Sangiovese Grosso (BBS11 clone) organically, certified since 2005, with long ageing in large Slavonian oak.
