Altesino

Altesino is a historic giant of Montalcino, famous for introducing the ‘Cru’ concept innovation to Tuscany and crafting Brunellos of seductive elegance and unparalleled consistency.

● Adorned by the magnificent 15th-century Palazzo Altesi, Altesino is a pillar of excellent viticulture in the Montalcino region. Over the decades, the producer distinguished itself not only for its profound respect for the Sangiovese grape but also for its pioneering spirit: it was the first winery in the region to introduce the single-vineyard concept with the legendary Brunello di Montalcino 'Montosoli', and a forerunner in using French oak barrels. Its wines are revered for fusing structural power with an almost intoxicating finesse and aromatic freshness. These are classic references, packed with cherry and sweet spice notes, built to age with majesty.
