Ciacci Piccolomini d’Aragona, Brunello di Montalcino Pianrosso 2016 1.5l (1x150cl)

The Ciacci Piccolomini d’Aragona 2016 Brunello di Montalcino Pianrosso is a single-vineyard expression that draws its fruit from an 11.7-hectare parcel with moderately thick galestro soils with ancient marine material. This special site, awash under the brilliant light of a big, open sky, does indeed deliver a more pronounced mineral signature, with wild berry, rose and rosemary essence. This is a beautiful wine, taut and silky, with elegant tannins that will endure ambitious bottle aging. Production is 37,000 bottles. Tasted by Monica Larner and published by The Wine Advocate in Dec 2020.
