Pianrosso is the estate’s flagship vineyard, a site near Castelnuovo dell’Abate in southeastern Montalcino with soils full of iron (hence the name, “red plain”). The Bianchini family has run Ciacci since 1985, when the Countess Elda Ciacci left the estate to Giuseppe Bianchini, her longtime estate manager. The 2021 is bold, plush and beautiful: spiced black plum, violet, new leather and camphor, with baking spice, a creamy, juicy middle and ripe tannins carrying a very long finish. Decant it now for steak or wild boar ragù, or cellar it well into the 2030s.

96 Points
"The 2021 Brunello Di Montalcino Pianrosso pours a youthful red hue and has a deeper, more complete expression in this vintage. The nose has a cologne-like lift, with brushy sage, cigar box, baked cherries, crushed stones, and licorice. Full-bodied, it stays light on its feet and carries velvety tannins, mouthwatering salinity, and refreshing acidity, with a finish that builds with warmth and spice. It should gain depth with time in bottle. Drink 2027-2040."
