Pietroso 2006 Sangiovese Grosso (Brunello di Montalcino)
- $55
Here’s a bright, buoyant style of Brunello that drinks easily but also delivers the sophistication and complexity you should expect of Montalcino. It opens with crisp, tonic aromas of cassis and wild berry with very subtle aromas of vanilla and toasted nut at the back.

Pietroso 2005 Sangiovese Grosso (Brunello di Montalcino)
- $60
This is a solid and attractive Brunello with bright cherry notes backed by softer tones of exotic spice, earth and white pepper. The wine boasts a compact and firm feel in the mouth that would pair with duck, pork or game hen.

Pietroso 2008 Sangiovese Grosso (Rosso di Montalcino)
- Online Exclusive
- $30
Vintner Gianni Pignattai has crafted a gorgeous Rosso di Montalcino that is a small step away in intensity and complexity from its big brother Brunello. Careful oak aging adds layers of spice and tobacco, but there’s also an abundance of bright berry fruit. The wine is lean and compact in the mouth with a fresh close.
