Pinino Brunello di Montalcino 2016

An opulent and concentrated Brunello, with bright cherry notes underpinned by stony minerality. Full bodied and firm, with silky tannins and a long finish full of finesse.

The Pinino winery is based in the picturesque town of Montalcino in Tuscany and has a long winemaking history, dating back to 1874. Since 1950, Pinino has been inscribed in the Brunello register of winemakers, and in 2003, Spaniard Max Hernandez and Austrian Andrea Gamon pursued their passion for producing quality wines and purchased the estate. For Max, whose father had been a winemaker in Toro also signified an adventure leading him back to his family’s roots. Together they have invested in the estate, they quadrupled the cultivation area to 16 hectares with the addition of the Canchi vineyard and transformed the estate, producing world-class wines. This family-run winery produces award-winning wines with incredible structure, elegance and great longevity.
