Tenuta Pian Delle Vigne
The Antinori family acquired the Pian delle Vigne estate in 1995, the same year the first Brunello Pian delle Vigne was harvested. The estate’s namesake wine, Pian delle Vigne, represents Marchesi Antinori’s deeply personal interpretation of the prestigious and traditional Brunello di Montalcino. The Pian Delle Vigne estate takes its name from the eponymous area where a characteristic nineteenth century railway station is located.
The Wines
Pian delle Vigne has adopted the philosophy of aging in large casks that preserve the exceptional integrity of the Sangiovese berry and vibrant elegance.
This wine accentuates the pleasant freshness of the Sangiovese grape, Montalcino’s historic variety. Grown in calcareous-clay soils.
Vignaferrovia is only produced in the finest vintages from the grapes of a small, 4 hectare (10 acre) parcel in the vineyard adjacent to the 19th century railway station on the estate. The wine is elegant and captivating.
