An elegant and harmonious expression of Sangiovese, with plenty of ripe raspberry and cherry fruit framing the full and velvety texture, through to a long, spicy finish.
The Pinino estate vineyards are located in the north of Montalcino with the Canchi vineyard in the north-east, facing south and south-west respectively. The vineyards are embedded like a natural amphitheatre into the beautiful and famous hillside of Montosoli. This distinctive geographical location has become known as one of the best areas of the region for wine production. The Sangiovese grapes are grown at an altitude of 310 to 320 metre, where the lower temperatures allow the grapes to express their finesse. The soil is rich in galestro (a rocky, clay-schistous soil with a flaky texture and free draining properties), clay and tuff.
