His Brunellos are among the world’s most sought-after—incomparable renderings that constitute an amalgam of scientific study, meticulous viticultural practices, and an innate, elusive gift for translating his passion through the wine itself—a highly personalized endowment that cannot be recreated. A traditionalist that has shared in the safeguarding of classic Brunello with the heralded Biondi-Santi, Soldera engages in an intense artisanal, organic approach that is rooted in an uncompromising degree of quality control, with exceedingly low yields being the hallmark of his efforts. A profound master of Brunello, Gianfranco Soldera crafts wines that are highly articulate, elegant, and complex expressions of terroir. Enter the rare and riveting realm of their creator in this fascinating exploration of a perfectionist who operates in the space where nature and idealism collide. (Note: All copies available through IWM have been autographed by Gianfranco—a consummate touch to a work that brings you inside a truly signature mind and space.)
