Winemaker Notes

Siro Pacenti Rosso di Montalcino is produced with great care from vines aged 15-25 years. Following a rigorous selection by optical sorter, the fruit is destemmed and sorted again before a brief cold maceration. Vinification in steel and concrete lasts about 4 weeks and is followed by 12 months in new French barrique before bottling. A wine of purity and depth rarely encountered in the Rosso category, Siro Pacenti Rosso di Montalcino averages 15,000 bottles per year, or roughly 20% of the winery’s total production.

This follows suit on the palate, velvety and polished with masses of ripe red and blue fruits, all guided by juicy acidity. The 2022 is powerful and dense yet still fresh with cocoa and brown spice notes. The Siro Pacenti style isn't

90 Wine Advocate

The Siro Pacenti 2023 Rosso di Montalcino delivers good depth despite its more straightforward fruit profile of blackcurrant and wild plum. A sweet Sangiovese note carries through the close, though vintage heat and elevated alcohol (15.5%) are clearly felt. Made from the same 50–50 blend of southern and northern fruit used for Vecchie Vigne, this wine underscores the estate’s ability to extract su
