About this product

Fresh. Artisanal. The vibrant younger sibling of Brunello from Montalcino’s northeast hillside.
From the same family estate as their much-loved Brunello, Podere San Giacomo’s Rosso di Montalcino offers a lively, approachable expression of Sangiovese. Crafted from the same vineyards and cared for with equal passion, this wine is approachable earlier thanks to its gentle extraction and shorter ageing—a delicious introduction to the craft and character of Montalcino.

Made from 100% Sangiovese Grosso, fermented naturally then aged around a year (8 months in small French oak barrels, another 6 in bottle), this wine reveals vivid cherry, forest berry, and spice aromas, carried on supple texture and fine-grained tannins. It's elegant and expressive, with freshness and structure in harmony. A perfect gateway to the terroir of Montalcino without the wait.

Why we love it:
This Rosso is a graceful introduction to the world of Brunello. Elegantly balanced, fruit-driven, and food-friendly, it offers the character of Montalcino with vibrancy and immediacy—a wine for today that hints at tomorrow’s complexity.

Podere San Giacomo is an artisanal family estate on Montalcino’s northeast slope, founded in 1993 by Claudio Nardi and Graziella Pieri. Now guided by their daughter Elena and grandfather Bruno, the estate practices minimal-intervention winemaking with sustainable viticulture. They produce just two wines—Brunello and Rosso—from 5 hectares of Sangiovese Grosso, emphasizing low yields and terroir expression in every bottle.
