La Magia’s vineyards are located in the warmer southeastern part of the Montalcino denomination, and while the wines are usually on the fleshy and ripe side, they often pack-in enough harmonious acidity that provides them with lift and gracefulness. This estate’s Rosso is a declassified Brunello (La Magia owns 17.5 hectares and they are all Sangiovese vineyards registered to Brunello production) and tends to make more Rosso in those years when the weather does not allow production of a super Brunello. ERIC GUIDO
La Magia is probably not a Brunello estate that is well-known to many in Australia but in recent years their wines have been causing quite a stir internationally and we're delighted to have the Cristina Sanna from the estate to host a small masterclass showcasing a selection of their fabulous wines. The wines are listed below and suffice to say, it's a fantastic lineup including four Brunellos.
La Magia is a beautiful property on the south side of the Montalcino hill at Sant’Antimo. The Schwartz family, originally from the Alto Adige, purchased the property over 40 years ago and today the winery is run by their son, Fabio, runs the estate.
