Piancornello Rosso Di Montalcino shows a bright ruby colour with a delicate intensity. The intriguingly complex nose is characteristic, with notes of red and black berry fruit, liquorice and sweet tobacco. This wine is always a bit firmer than the Campo Della Macchia, with slightly more chewy tannic grip and a little less acidity. As with all of Piancornello's wines, this wine shows off the perfect use of oak to balance its cherry and plum fruit.

Piancornello Rosso Di Montalcino comes from the same vineyards as the estate's Brunello Di Montalcino and is also made entirely from Sangiovese. Rather than experiencing the long ageing required for the Brunello DOCG, Rosso Di Montalcino spends 10 months in tonneaux (25% new) before being bottled.

  • ❖ ABV: 15%

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.
