The Consorzio del Vino Brunello di Montalcino was born in 1967, the day after the recognition of the DOC, as a free association between producers intent on protecting their wine and enhancing its characteristics. The Consortium has favored the birth of a productive fabric made up of old and new companies, small and large, united by common intentions of respect for nature and aspiration to high quality wine. The Consortium organizes events in Italy and abroad and the participation of producers in fairs. It takes care of the image of the Montalcino denominations through a press office, spreads news through a website and numerous publications in several languages. A less visible but very important activity is the assistance to the specialized press and to the opinion makers for whom tastings and visits are organized. Equally important is the assistance to members on the regulations governing wine production.
