Winemaker Notes

A rare and unforgettable wine, PS Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is only made in exceptional vintages. 100% of the fruit is sourced from the original parcel of vines at Pelagrilli, north of Montalcino village. Rigorous sorting of the berries produced by the already low-yielding vines resulted in just 1,800 bottles of wine in the 2019 vintage. 30 months in custom-made French barriques was followed by 2 months in concrete and 24 months in bottle. The winery did not produce another Riserva until the 2022 vintage, which will be ready for release in 2028.

Professional Ratings

96 Vinous

The 2016 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva PS is impossible to ignore, as a burst of mentholated black cherries mixes with notes of crushed stone, sage, smoking embers and a hint of spiced orange. Pure in style yet silken in feel, it offers red berry fruits that cascade across the palate as a jolt of zesty acidity lifts the experience. Structured and dramatically long, the 2016 tapers off with a saturation of fine tannins and a pleasantly bitter tinge of dark chocolate that lingers. It’s a dark beast of a Brunello.
