Enzo Tiezzi is one of Montalcino’s great traditionalists, crafting wines that honor the region’s heritage with elegance and restraint. Vigna Soccorso is his flagship—a historic vineyard near Montalcino’s town center, known for its high-altitude exposure and galestro-rich soils. These elements lend precision and finesse to his Brunello, which sees extended aging in large Slavonian oak casks to emphasize purity and structure. The 2020 vintage, from a warm but well-balanced year, is a textbook example of old-school Montalcino winemaking.

Bright red cherry, wild strawberry, and dried rose petals lead the way, followed by layers of anise, tobacco, and crushed herbs. The palate is firm and structured yet refined, with fine-grained tannins and vibrant acidity keeping everything in harmony. The long, mineral-driven finish promises decades of evolution in the cellar.

This is Brunello built for patience, but with air, its elegance already shines through. Decant if opening young, or cellar for 15–20 years to experience its full complexity. A perfect pairing for bistecca Fiorentina, braised lamb, or aged pecorino.

Professional Reviews

"Mid ruby. Great depth and complexity on the nose but still a little closed at the same time. Garden herbs with shy raspberry-fruit notes. Supple acidity lifts raspberry fruit that is matched by a big dose of tactile, gravelly tannins. But it doesn't overpower the fruit. Has something earthy and pure about it."

"The 2020 Vigna Soccorso has alluring aromas of violet, plum and a whiff of resin. Full-bodied and already almost accessible, the palate features ripe Morello cherry, bilberry and cake spice before closing on a hint of mocha. Tightly woven tannins provide support."
