The Brunello di Montalcino DOCG "Pian delle Vigne" is an exemplary expression of what the Antinori winery can offer. This prestigious red wine is produced in the heart of Tuscany, a region famed for its rich soils that impart unique and irreplaceable notes to the wine.
Grown in the "Pian delle Vigne" vineyard, which covers an area of about 65 hectares, the Brunello di Montalcino is made exclusively from Sangiovese grapes. The commitment to meticulous vineyard care and grape selection allows for the production of a wine with great structure and longevity. Antinori's "Pian delle Vigne" is known for its aging process of 24 months in large oak barrels, followed by further refinement in the bottle that perfects its bouquet and texture.
Antinori's Brunello di Montalcino presents a deep ruby red color, with a nose that reveals intense aromas of ripe fruit such as cherries and plums, along with notes of tobacco, chocolate, and a slight hint of spices such as vanilla and black pepper. On the palate, it offers a robust yet balanced structure, mature tannins, and a remarkable persistence that invites a second sip.
Suitable for aging well for many years, this wine is ideal for pairing with red meat dishes, game, and aged cheeses. The Brunello di Montalcino "Pian delle Vigne" by Antinori represents an excellent choice for those looking for a meditation wine or to accompany significant dinners. Finally, its elegant and complex profile makes it a prestigious gift for any enthusiast of high-quality Italian wines.
