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 2021 presents a ruby red color. On the nose it expresses pleasant and delicate aromas of plum and yellow flowers accompanied by fresh sensations of blood orange; the bouquet is completed by balsamic notes of menthol and tobacco. On the palate it is elegant, fresh, smooth and characterized by aromas of red fruit. The tasty and fine tannins lead to a long and persistent finish, rich in spicy 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.
