    Portrait of Leonardo Berti

    i. Biography

    Leonardo Berti is a winemaker at Poggio di Sotto in Montalcino. The estate's current wine pages and technical sheets name him alongside chief winemaker Luca Marrone. Their work centers on organically farmed Sangiovese from the steep slopes above the Orcia River, with strict fruit selection, spontaneous fermentation, long maceration, and patient ageing used to preserve the identity of each vintage. Berti is part of the cellar team responsible for Poggio di Sotto's Rosso di Montalcino and Brunello di Montalcino wines.
