Tenuta Pian delle Vigne, located 6 km. southwest of Montalcino, takes its name from the homonymous locality on which a characteristic 19th-century railway station is located. The farm covers 184 hectares, of which 83 are vineyards exposed mainly to the southwest at an altitude of approximately 130 meters above sea level.
The philosophy aimed at the large cask, capable of preserving the extraordinary integrity of the Sangiovese fruit and giving Brunello the vibrant elegance characteristic of this variety, finds an extraordinary expression in Brunello Pian delle Vigne.
Upon arrival in the cellar, the grapes were crushed and pressed gently before being transferred to stainless steel tanks where alcoholic fermentation took place. The maceration lasted about fifteen days at a temperature of 28 °C.
over 24 months in large barrels and then in bottle
Pian delle Vigne Brunello di Montalcino 2020 presents with a ruby red color. On the nose, fragrant and fresh citrus notes of blood orange and plum combine with balsamic and vanilla sensations. On the palate it is fine, vibrant, characterized by savory tannins supported by excellent freshness. The finish is long and persistent, characterized by fruity, spicy and vanilla aromas.

Ideal with pappardelle with wild boar or wild goat sauce, excellent with structured soups such as the classic Tuscan ribollita. Excellent with wild boar in cacciatora, capriole, deer, wild boar in stew and pheasant, it pairs wonderfully with the traditional Fiorentina steak cooked over charcoal and the braised beef dishes. Perfect with very aged cheeses (such as the Tuscan DOP pecorino aged in a cave) or herbal and fermented cheeses.
