IL MARRONETO
Stretching over a tiny 9 hectares, Il Marroneto is owned by the charismatic Alessandro Mori. Son of lawyer Giuseppe Mori, Alessandro gave up his law career to make Brunello full time in 1994.

In this context, it is then not surprising that the wines of Il Marroneto are some of the most elegant and age-worthy Brunello in Montalcino, demonstrating extraordinary breeding and grace.

TASTING NOTES
The 2016 vintage produced outstanding wines across Italy and this is no exception. The Ignaccio has beautiful bright floral notes and is relatively powerful, yet elegant on the palate displaying lots of crunchy red fruit. Delicious already this will mature into a baby Brunello at a very attractive price, very moreish! Another terrific effort from Alessandro Mori. Armit Wines
