Di Luna is Sasso di Sole's tribute to a singular vintage — the 2015 — in which the combination of weather, soil, and vine produced a Sangiovese Grosso of rare quality and distinction. The name Di Luna — Of the Moon — carries the poetry of a wine conceived in awareness of something exceptional happening in the vineyard: a vintage of lunar quality, separated from the routine of ordinary years by the particular gifts that 2015 delivered to the Montalcino hill.
The 2015 vintage in Montalcino is widely considered among the finest of the decade — a year of ideal weather conditions throughout the growing season that produced Sangiovese Grosso of exceptional concentration, balance, and longevity. At Sasso di Sole, where the indigenous yeast fermentation and large Slavonian oak barrel philosophy ensures that the vintage character is preserved rather than obscured, the 2015 harvest produced a wine of characteristics that warranted the separate label.
This is Brunello di Montalcino DOCG from a single specific vintage, presented under a name that acknowledges the vintage's singular quality and the estate's awareness of that quality at the moment of harvest. It is a wine for those who understand that the finest bottles are often those that capture a specific moment in time — a year when conditions aligned to produce something beyond the ordinary.
The same production philosophy applies as to all Sasso di Sole wines: indigenous yeasts, extended fermentation on the skins, slow rest in the large Slavonian oak barrels that preserve the fruit's integrity while developing the complexity that great Brunello demands. The 2015 vintage provides the exceptional raw material; the estate's philosophy provides the technique; the result is a wine of documented and lasting distinction.
