Winery Siro Pacenti

The estate took shape when Siro Pacenti purchased the Pelagrilli site in 1970; management passed to Giancarlo Pacenti in the late 1980s, a period in which the estate began regularly bottling Rosso and Brunello. In subsequent years the estate expanded its vineyards to the southern slope and developed the cellar and its current winemaking practices.

The estate prioritizes the cultivation and enhancement of pure Sangiovese, sustainable farming practices, hand-harvesting and grape selection by parcel. At the winery, parcels are vinified separately and wines are aged for extended periods in wood to achieve fine tannins and complexity; some wines are unfiltered and decanting is recommended.

Vineyards are located mainly in the Pelagrilli area north of Montalcino and in Piancornello to the south. The estate manages vineyards with varying exposures and microclimates to produce wines that balance freshness and structure.

Notable recognitions: James Suckling awarded the Brunello "Vecchie Vigne" 2015 Wine of the Year 2019. The estate's wines also receive high scores from specialist guides and critics.
