LISINI BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO 2019

Situated in the southwest corner of Montalcino near Sant'Angelo in Colle, the historic Lisini estate showcases the region's distinctive terroir through vineyards perched at 350 meters above sea level, where favorable southern exposure and ventilation from the Maremma create ideal conditions for cultivating exceptional Sangiovese. This sustainable, family-run estate—whose roots stretch back to the 16th century and whose matriarch Elina became the Brunello consortium's first female president in 1970—remains steadfastly traditional under the stewardship of siblings Carlo, Lorenzo, and cousin Ludovica. Their celebrated Brunello offers a powerful yet balanced expression of pure Sangiovese, meticulously aged in large Slavonian oak casks that complement rather than overshadow the wine's plush, juicy character of ripe red fruits, supported by structured tannins that promise excellent aging potential.
