Ciacci Piccolomini d'Aragona Vigna di Pianrosso Santa Caterina D'Oro Riserva, Brunello di Montalcino DOCG From Ciacci Piccolomini d'Aragona comes the Vigna di Pianrosso Santa Caterina D'Oro Riserva, Brunello di Montalcino DOCG. From the 11.69ha Pianrosso vineyard (translating to ‘red field’, referring to the iron-rich soils), this is a 100% Sangiovese using only the best grape selection. This single vineyard bottling is a quintessential representation of why the wines made by the Bianchini family are some of the most sought after in the region. Fermented in stainless steel and glass, the wine is then matured for three years in Slavonian oak, before a further year in bottle. The result is a complex and intense wine, rich with fruit and spice and incredible opportunity for ageing.
