Pian delle Vigne Brunello di Montalcino is ruby red in color. Complex on the nose with balsamic hints of menthol and cloves that lead to fruity aromas of cherries, plums, dates, and notes of cinnamon. A soft and balanced entry on the palate is silky smooth, characterized by soft tannins, and sustained by exceptional freshness. Flavours linger on the finish with aromas of vanilla and light hints of violets, typical of Sangiovese.
After malolactic fermentation, the wine was transferred to oak barrels of varying capacities, between 30 hl and 80 hl, where it aged in the barrel for two years. Pian delle Vigne was then bottled and aged for a lengthy period before being released.

| Winery | Brunello is the driest zone of Tuscany and has a winning combination of warm days and cool nights. This allows Sangiovese to reach optimum ripeness while retaining acidity and maximising concentration. The result is one of Italy’s grandest appellations: Antinori bought this well-sited estate in 1995. The Pian Delle Vigne estate is located 6 kilometres (3.5 miles) southwest of Montalcino. Its name comes from the eponymous area where a characteristic nineteenth-century railway station is located. The property consists of 460 total acres (184 hectares), 160 of which (65 hectares) are planted to vines with generally a southwestern exposure at an altitude of 430 feet (130 meters) above sea level. Since the beginning, the estate has followed a philosophy based on ageing in large casks, which is capable of preserving the exceptional integrity and fruit of the Sangiovese grapes and endowing this Brunello with characteristic vibrant elegance. Pian delle Vigne has belonged to the Antinori family since 1995, the first Pian delle Vigne vintage. |
