The Carpineto Estate in Montalcino is one of the highest in the denomination at about 500 metres above sea level. The soil is sedimentary in nature with a marl skeleton underneath clayey accumulations from the Pliocene epoch (15 million years ago). The slight exposure to the north, in a panoramic and ventilated position, gives the wines of this 53 hectare estate a unique microclimate that gives the Brunello intense and complex aromas of wild berries, cherries and Mediterranean spices supported by a beautiful freshness, elegance, fine structure and great longevity.

Wine Spectator: 94 Points

"A bright and focused red, revealing cherry, currant, spice and iron flavors. Lively and succulent on the almost puckering finish, showing terrific balance and a long aftertaste. Best from 2025 through 2043." The Wine Spectator, 94 Points

James Suckling: 91 Points

"Aromas of orange peel, wet earth, bark, stones and sour cherries. Fresh, balanced and mineral, with a medium to full body and fine-grained tannins. Very drinkable. Drink now or hold." James Suckling, 91 Points
