LA TENUTA CIACCI PICCOLOMINI D’ARAGONA

The Ciacci Piccolomini d’Aragona estate is located on the south east slope of the municipality of Montalcino, close to the medieval village of Castelnuovo dell’Abate and to the famous Romanesque Abbey of Sant’Antimo, which dates back to the 11th century.
The entire estate, extending over 220 hectares of which 55.5 are in vines and 40 in olive groves, has all the typical characteristics of the Tuscan countryside adorned with rolling hills, pastures and woods with unforgettable colours.

Set between Arna hill and the Orcia River to the south-east, it offers a unique panorama with the beautiful contour of Mount Amiata in the background. Wild animals, scents of flowers and plants and the typical farmhouses dotted around, create a peaceful and calm atmosphere in this area.

BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO
VIGNA PIANROSSO S. CATERINA D’ORO

The Brunello Riserva is a result of careful selections of the Pianrosso grape in the vineyards followed by a long maceration in our wine cellars.

Fermentation and refinement

In stainless steel and glass concrete vats, temperature-controlled via cooling plates and jackets.

Ageing

More than 3 years in 7,5 – 30 hl Slavonian oak barrels, followed by over 12 months of bottle ageing.

Organoleptic characteristics

• Colour: ruby red verging on garnet.
• The bouquet is intense and complex: fruit-forward, spicy and ethereal, with hints of red berries and various spices.
• Warm, harmonic with pronounced and soft tannins. A full-bodied wine with a very long aftertaste. A Brunello that can be refined in the bottle for many years.
• Food pairings: excellent with roasted and game meat. Enjoyable with mature cheeses or as a meditation wine
