Val di Suga is a winery established in 1969 after acquiring agricultural land in northern Montalcino, named after the Suga Stream that runs through the winery. It gained attention for its innovative approach of converting grain fields into vineyards during its early years and is regarded as a pioneer that opened the era of Cru-level Brunello di Montalcino when it introduced the single-vineyard wine "Vigna del Lago" in 1983.

Since then, Val di Suga has acquired additional vineyards, including "Vigna Spuntali" in the southwest in 1988 and "Poggio al Granchio" in the southeast in 1999, presenting unique Cru-level wines that fully capture the terroir of three top single vineyards in Montalcino.

The wines that NARA CELLAR is introducing this time are ▲Brunello di Montalcino Vigna del Lago ▲Brunello di Montalcino Poggio al Granchio ▲Brunello di Montalcino Vigna Spuntali ▲Brunello di Montalcino ▲Rosso di Montalcino, a total of five.

The five Val di Suga wines are available at NARA CELLAR's direct stores (NARA CELLAR Reserve, Winefix) and major department stores nationwide (Hyundai, Shinsegae, Lotte, Galleria).
