Pian delle Vigne 2016
Classification DOCG
Vintage 2016
Climate: The 2016 vintage was characterised by a winter with little rain and a mild spring. These climatic conditions favoured a slight anticipation of budding and flowering,
which was made up for by the fruit set, which took place regularly. The summer, which tended to be cooler than in 2015, was characterised by temperatures above the
seasonal average, particularly in July and August. The light rainfall during the month of September and the consequent drop in temperature allowed the grapes to complete
their ripening in an optimal manner, enhancing the freshness of the Sangiovese and giving the wine soft and balanced tannins.
Harvesting for Brunello di Montalcino took place at the end of September.
Vinification: on arrival in the winery the grapes were destemmed and softly crushed and then transferred to stainless steel tanks where alcoholic fermentation took place.
Maceration lasted about fifteen days at a temperature of 28 °C. After malolactic fermentation, the wine was transferred to oak barrels of between 30 and 80 Hl where it began
its maturation in wood. After two years Pian delle Vigne left the large cask and began its long refinement in the bottle.
Historical data: Tenuta Pian delle Vigne, located 6 km south-west of Montalcino, takes its name from the village of the same name, where there is a characteristic railway
station from the 19th century. The estate consists of 184 hectares, 65 of which are planted with vines, mainly exposed to the south-west at an altitude of about 130 metres
above sea level. Pian delle Vigne has always pursued the philosophy of using large casks, which preserve the extraordinary integrity of the Sangiovese fruit and give Brunello
its characteristic vibrant elegance. The winery has been owned by the Antinori family since 1995, the year of the first harvest of Pian delle Vigne Brunello di Montalcino
DOCG.
Tasting notes: the wine has an intense ruby red colour. The nose is complex, with notes of ripe red fruit, reminiscent of cherries, well in harmony with floral scents. The
bouquet is completed by sensations of chocolate, tobacco, clove and both aromatic and balsamic herbs. A vintage, the 2016, capable of expressing great finesse and
elegance and to give the wine a good freshness accompanied by soft tannins and an excellent length of taste. Pleasant notes of spice and tobacco return on the finish.
Alcohol content: 14% Vol.
