The 2023 Antinori Pian delle Vigne Rosso di Montalcino is a vibrant and elegant Tuscan red that showcases the freshness and charm of Sangiovese from Montalcino. Crafted by the renowned Antinori family, it opens with expressive aromas of black cherry, raspberry and blood orange, layered with delicate spice, violet and subtle earthy notes.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with silky tannins, bright acidity and a supple, juicy texture. Flavours of red berries, savoury herbs and gentle spice flow into a fresh, polished and persistent finish, delivering excellent balance and drinkability.
Ben’s Recommendation:

Often described as a “Baby Brunello,” it offers impressive depth and character while remaining approachable and food-friendly. Drink now or over the next 5–6 years. Perfect with pasta, pizza, grilled meats, roast lamb or Italian cuisine.
