The wine

Pinino Brunello 2020: The Deep Soul of Montalcino

Imagine yourself in the heart of Tuscany, where time seems suspended. Today, I'm taking you to discover a wine that embodies this essence: the Brunello di Montalcino 2020 from the Pinino estate. It's an encounter with the very personality of Sangiovese, an experience that is both concentrated and remarkably refined.

Pinino: The Jewel Box of a Mythic Terroir

We are in Montalcino, land blessed by the gods of wine, where Sangiovese Grosso reigns supreme. The Pinino estate, with its discreet history but deep commitment, crafts wines that speak of their origin. This Brunello 2020 is the fruit of careful winemaking, including fermentation in steel tanks and a long maceration, choices that respect the integrity of the fruit and the terroir.

At first glance, its deep ruby color captivates you. On the nose, it's a symphony: notes of ripe cherry and plum mingle with subtler touches of undergrowth and sweet tobacco, all lifted by spicy accents that add beautiful complexity. On the palate, it envelops you with a firm yet harmonious texture. The tannins are well defined, and an internal freshness balances the body, offering a sensation of suppleness and fluidity. The finish is long, persistent, leaving fruity memories and a salinity that irresistibly invites another sip.

Tuscan Pairings: An Ideal Table Companion

This Brunello di Montalcino 2020 is the ideal partner for generous tables. I recommend it with braised or roasted red meats, game, or aged cheeses. It also reveals itself magnificently when enjoyed alone, in a moment of contemplation, where its aromas can fully unfold. Don't hesitate to decant it slightly to release all its fragrances, and serve it at a temperature of 16-18 °C. It has the structure needed for cellar aging, but believe me, it is already exquisitely elegant today.

A little tip from a Tuscan: the Sangiovese Grosso of Montalcino loves dishes with substance — game, red meat, or aged cheese — and a little aeration before sitting down to eat.
