Ciacci Piccolomini is one of Montalcino’s most revered estates, known for its rich yet refined Brunello wines. Pianrosso is their flagship single-vineyard bottling, sourced from prime south-facing slopes with iron-rich soils that lend both power and elegance. Produced only in exceptional vintages, the Brunello Riserva Pianrosso undergoes extended aging in large Slavonian oak casks, allowing it to develop remarkable complexity. The 2019 vintage, shaped by a near-perfect growing season, offers both structure and vibrancy, making this a wine for the ages.

Deep black cherry, plum, and dried rose petals lead into layers of tobacco, leather, and warm spice. The tannins are firm yet beautifully integrated, giving the wine impressive length and aging potential. While robust, the acidity remains bright, keeping it fresh and precise despite its concentration. Compared to the estate’s classic Brunello, the Riserva shows more depth, polish, and the ability to evolve for decades.

A benchmark Brunello for collectors, this will reward patience, developing even greater complexity over the next 20+ years. Decant if opening young, or cellar to watch it unfold. A perfect match for bistecca Fiorentina, wild boar ragù, or aged pecorino, this is Brunello at its most powerful and elegant.

Professional Reviews

Antonio Galloni

"Dark, brooding and potent, the 2019 Brunello di Montalcino Vigna di Pianrosso Santa Caterina d'Oro Riserva is a force to be reckoned with. It launches from the glass with a burst of crushed blackberries, plums and exotic spices, further complicated by dried orange peels and cedar shavings. Velvety and weighty, this floods the palate with rich and enveloping textures. This retains a core of tantalizing and stabilizing acidity, with ripe red and black fruits that drench the senses. The 2019 tapers off with dramatic length and structure, leaving a framework of sweet tannins and resonance of salted licorice and mocha that lingers on." -Vinous

"I have not seen this wine in a few years. The Ciacci Piccolomini d'Aragona 2019 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Vigna di Pianrosso Santa Caterina d'Oro offers a darkly concentrated approach with a bouquet built upon black fruit intensity, spice, earth and cured tobacco. I find the approach quite robust and heavy-handed. This vintage is especially concentrated and best recommended to those looking for this hearty style. The tannins come with a hint of dryness. Production is 18,600 bottles with some larger formats."
