Six kilometers southwest of the renowned Montalcino, the Pian delle Vigne estate ages their Brunello di Montalcino in large casks capable of preserving the exceptional integrity of the fruit. The 2014 vintage yielded an attractive red wine that showcases the elegance and complexity of the grape. This exceptional vintage offers a harmonious balance of power and grace, with a rich and structured palate that celebrates stewed fruit and chewy tannins. Complemented by aromatic notes of tobacco, vanilla, cinnamon and a touch of minerality. Pair with a roast beef, rack of lamb, or an Osso Bucco.

Critic Reviews
Wine Advocate

91 Points, Monica Larner, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: "The 2014 Brunello di Montalcino Pian delle Vigne works very nicely all said and done. It presents the light and undertone character of the vintage against the ripe and more opulent style that is associated with this vineyard site at the lower parts of southern Montalcino. These two elements result in a balanced and forthright performance. The wine opens to a dark garnet color and ripe aromas of dark cherry and blackberry followed by potting soil, rose bud and grilled herb. Some 150,000 bottles were made." 1/19

92 Points, Ian D'Agata, Vinous: "Bright red. Delicate nuances of quince and poached pear complement perfumed violet and lily of the valley aromas on the enticingly pure, almost aromatic nose. Then delicate flavors of almond kernel, raspberry and minerals on the tangy, piquant, lusciously fresh palate. More raspberry notes repeat on the nicely perfumed, lingering finish. An outstanding Brunello, in fact one of the better ones from Antinori in years; I especially like it because it just goes with the flow of the year rather than trying too hard to extract what could not be obtained from this weather-challenged vintage. Lovely stuff; well done." 03/19

91 Points, Kerin O'Keefe, Wine Enthusiast: "Aromas of stewed plum, pressed violet, tobacco and a whiff of leather lead the way. The medium-bodied, linear palate offers succulent black cherry, crushed herb and star anise alongside fine-grained tannins and bright acidity. Drink 2020-2029." 05/19

90 Points, James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com: "Aromas of tar, spice and dried berries follow through to a medium body with stewed fruit and chewy tannins. Medium body. Juicy finish. Drink now." 01/19
