Descrizione

The Brunello di Montalcino DOCG "Vecchie Vigne" produced by Siro Pacenti winery represents one of the most authentic and refined expressions of this famous Tuscan wine. Originating from the oldest vines of the estate, located in a geographically privileged area of Montalcino, this wine is the result of a selective manual harvest that ensures only the best clusters.

Aged for about 24 months in French oak barriques followed by additional months in the bottle, Siro Pacenti's Brunello di Montalcino "Vecchie Vigne" stands out for its structural complexity and intense aromatic depth. On the nose, it offers a rich bouquet of aromas of ripe red fruits, spicy notes and hints of tobacco and dark chocolate, demonstrating the excellent integration between the wine and the wood.

Visually, it has a deep ruby red color, nearly impenetrable, which heralds its richness. On the palate, it is vigorous yet harmonious, with robust yet smoothed tannins and a well-balanced acidity that promises an excellent aging potential. Ideal culinary pairings include flavorful dishes like roasts, game, and aged cheeses.

This Brunello di Montalcino is ideal for lovers of Tuscan wines with great structure and longevity, perfect for special occasions or as a prestigious addition to any wine cellar.

Winery history

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.

Production philosophy

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.

Terroir and vineyards

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.

Awards and recognitions

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.
