Its colour is rich and golden with a flowery and exotic bouquet. The palate is sweet, full and warm with hints of honey, raisins and exotic fruits.

FloruS is made exclusively with late-harvest Moscadello grapes. The nectar-rich raisins are gently pressed and fermented at low temperatures over a period of several months, then filtered and stored at a controlled temperature in stainless steel tanks. The base of 85% of the wine from the vintage year shown on the label is then blended with 15% of the same wine from the previous vintage which had been aged in barriques of French oak for one year.

Castello Banfi was founded in 1978 by the Mariani family, Italian-Americans who had been involved in wine importing and distribution since 1919. They saw great potential in this then sleepy Tuscan region and from the start their goal was to establish a point of excellence in Montalcino. Combining a respect for tradition and the environment with state of the art research and working practices they have helped to transform the regions wines and established Banfis reputation in an impressively short period of time. They produce premium wines in Montalcino and beyond with a profound respect for the land and people from which they come.
