About This Wine

Summus, Latin for “highest,” is a wine of towering elegance—an expression crafted to reflect the peak of Castello Banfi’s winemaking philosophy. It brings together Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Syrah in a blend that captures the estate’s most elevated ideals: purity of fruit, depth of structure, and a sense of harmony that only meticulous vineyard work can achieve. Each vintage is shaped to honor its name, offering layers of dark cherry, spice, and polished tannins that rise with every sip, reminding you that “highest” isn’t just a translation—it’s the intent behind every bottle.
