2024 Altesino - Rosso di Montalcino DOC (750ml)

Altesino sits amid the eastern hills of Montalcino near Siena in central Tuscany, operating out of a magnificently elegant 14th-century palazzo. The estate was a consistent innovator — it became the first Montalcino producer to introduce single-vineyard cru wines, with its Montosoli Brunello considered among the region's finest.  Today's winemaking team is led by Simone Giunti and Alessandro Ciacci. 

Viticulture & Winemaking

Altesino sources the Rosso entirely from select Sangiovese Grosso grapes from younger vines across the Altesino, Pianezzine, Macina, and Castelnuovo dell'Abate vineyards. After fermentation in stainless steel, the wine ages in large oak barrels of varied maturity for six to eight months, followed by three months in bottle
