Description

Antinori releases a silky and balanced Tuscan wine

The estate

Owned by the Antinori family since 1995, Pian Della Vigne is located 6km south of Montalcino, aboive the Orcia river ; 40km from Sienna in Tuscany, Italy. The estate’s name comes from the old 19th century railway station that is right in the middle of the estate and still used. The wines of the Antinori – Pian Della Vigne are renowned for their aromatic intensity, great minerality typical of their terroir and the elegance of their tannins, which only improve in quality as time goes on.

The Tuscan vineyard of Pian Delle Vigne covers 184 hectares, 65 of which are vineyards, with the rest divided into olive groves and woods.

The vineyard

This Brunello di Montalcino wine is made from vines planted on clay-limestone soils at an altitude of between 130 and 250 metres above sea level with an excellent south-east exposure.

Winemaking and ageing

After the harvest, the grapes were taken to the cellar where they were destemmed, gently crushed and transferred to stainless steel tanks to begin the alcoholic fermentation. Maceration of the skins took place over a period of approximately 12 days at a controlled temperature of 28 degrees. After malolactic fermentation, the wine was transferred to oak barrels of varying capacity, between 30 and 80 hectolitres, for a period of two years. Finally, the wine was bottled and then aged for a long period before being released on the market.
