Wine from Siro Pacenti

Filter 

Siro Pacenti was founded in 1970 when Siro Pacenti established the Pelagrilli estate northeast of Montalcino, in Tuscany. His son Giancarlo Pacenti took over in 1988 and, after training in Bordeaux, modernized the cellar and expanded the holdings to include the Piancornello vineyard on the warmer southern side of the appellation. Farming old-vine Sangiovese across both sites, the estate is regarded as one of Montalcino’s benchmark names, with its Vecchie Vigne and Pelagrilli Brunello bottlings among the most admired expressions of the region.

Siro Pacenti Brunello di Montalcino Vecchie Vigne 2020

Siro Pacenti Brunello di Montalcino Vecchie Vigne 2020 is made from 100% Sangiovese.

Siro Pacenti was founded in 1970 when Siro Pacenti established the Pelagrilli estate northeast of Montalcino; his son Giancarlo Pacenti took the reins in 1988 and, after training in Bordeaux, modernized the cellar and added the Piancornello vineyard on the appellation’s warmer southern side. The Vecchie Vigne, or “Old Vines”, bottling is drawn from the estate’s oldest Sangiovese plantings across both sites and aged in French barrique.

Brunello di Montalcino is made entirely from Sangiovese grown on the hills around the town of Montalcino in southern Tuscany, and is aged for years before release. The 2020 vintage is a touch more accessible in youth while keeping the concentration and firm, dusty tannic structure that give the wine its long aging runway.

Review:

Aromas of black cherries, bark, black truffle, ink and lead pencil follow through to a full body with perfectly integrated tannins that are caressing yet impressive and add intensity and focus to the wine. The silky tannins caress every inch of your palate. Savory finish. Drink or hold.
