Talenti

Founded in the 1970s by Pierluigi Talenti, today the estate is led by his grandson Riccardo, who carries on the tradition with an eye attentive to innovation and to the valorisation of the territory.
The 16 hectares of vineyards, divided into 9 parcels on the southern slope of Montalcino, are managed with extreme care to ensure a meticulous selection of grapes and obtain balanced, enjoyable and elegant wines.
Vinification takes place in temperature-controlled steel tanks, with punch-downs and pump-overs designed to enhance the characteristics of each parcel. Ageing continues in 500-litre French tonneaux and in large Slavonian oak casks of 25 and 30 hectolitres.
It is directly from the wood that, after about ten months, the Rosso di Montalcino is selected, while the Brunello continues its ageing for about three years. Framing the production are the cru Brunello Piero and the Brunello Riserva Pian di Conte, the latter bottled only in the best vintages.
