Located in the south east of the Montalcino region close to the beautiful medieval village of Castelnuovo dell’Abate, the estate of Ciacci Piccolomini d’Aragona can trace its roots back to the 17th century. The Ciacci family owned the estate for over a hundred years until the death of Countess Elda Ciacci, who left the property to her long-standing and well-respected estate manager Giuseppe Bianchini. His hard work and dedication has been continued by his son and daughter, Paolo and Lucia, who have developed the property and wines to their current respected position. The wines receive global acclaim thanks to the commitment to the terroir and traditional winemaking practices and rank Ciacci Piccolomini D’Aragona amongst the greatest producers of Brunello di Montalcino.
This wine is crafted from mainly Sangiovese grapes, with a small portion of Syrah and Merlot added to the blend to make a more rounded, balanced style. The palate is fruity, lightly herbal and enriched by hints of spices. This wine is ready for drinking, full-bodied, and quite soft and well balanced.
Tasting Note:
The palate is fruity, lightly herbal and enriched by hints of spices. This wine is ready for drinking, full-bodied, and quite soft and well balanced.
