✕ Sorry, currently unavailable

Piancornello Brunello Di Montalcino Riserva is ruby red in colour with hues of paler brick. A characteristic bouquet, bold and austere, with notes of red fruits on a spicy, ethereal background. The palate is full-bodied, with ripe black cherry fruit, spice, notes of tar and hints of rosemary. Perfectly balanced and pleasingly approachable now, the substantial structure ensures a long life ahead of it.

The Piancornello Brunello Di Montalcino Riserva is crafted to defy time. Classically structured, full-bodied and perfectly balanced, this is a Sangiovese to remember. It is made from a clone of Sangiovese that has smaller bunches and smaller berries, endowing the wine with a deep colour and a firm structure. By law, Brunello Riserva must be aged for at least 5 years - with a minimum of 2 years in cask - before it can be released. Piancornello's Brunello Di Montalcino Riserva spent 10 months in barriques and tonneaux and then 30 months in Slavonian oak casks prior to bottling.

OUR GROWERS

Piancornello

The Pieri Family’s journey at Piancornello began in 1950 when they acquired the estate vineyard. For decades, they supplied other renowned Montalcino producers with their fruit. In 1991, the world had its first taste of the Pieri family’s wines, sold under their own label. Today, the family proudly tends to certified organic vineyards on the south-facing slopes of the Sesta zone.
