Description
Piancornello Rosso di Montalcino shines with a bright ruby colour and a nose full of red and black berries, liquorice, and a touch of sweet tobacco. On the palate it’s firmer and more structured than the estate’s Campo della Macchia, with chewy tannins, slightly lower acidity, and beautifully judged oak framing its cherry and plum fruit.
Made entirely from Sangiovese grown in the same vineyards as Piancornello’s Brunello di Montalcino, this Rosso skips the extended ageing of Brunello DOCG. Instead, it spends 10 months in tonneaux (about a quarter of which are new) before bottling, capturing freshness while still showing depth and character.
