The Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG Pian delle Vigne Vignaferrovia di Antinori is obtained from 100% Sangiovese grapes grown on the Pian delle Vigne estate, located southwest of Montalcino (SI). The original vineyard covers about 4 hectares, adjacent to an ancient railway station, and sits on clay-limestone soils, rich in small pebbles, at an altitude of about 130 meters above sea level. After the harvest, the grapes underwent soft pressing and were transferred to stainless steel tanks to begin the alcoholic fermentation phase during which the must remained in contact with the skins for about 21 days. After malolactic fermentation, the Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG Pian delle Vigne Vignaferrovia di Antinori was aged in oak barrels of varying capacities (from 5hl to 30hl) for over 24 months, finally undergoing a long bottle aging.

BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO RISERVA PIAN DELLE VIGNE VIGNAFERROVIA ANTINORI: TASTING NOTES

The Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG Pian delle Vigne Vignaferrovia di Antinori seduces in the glass with its ruby red color with garnet reflections. On the nose, it releases scents of sour cherry and ripe red fruit intertwined with evolved hints of tobacco and delicate balsamic notes. The sip is powerful and elegant, supported by a very fine tannic texture and a gentle fresh-savory trail that lingers in the long finish. It pairs well with aged cheeses as well as rich meat-based dishes of red meats or game at the table.
