The Pietroso estate, located in Montalcino, Italy, has been cultivating vines since 1363.
The company was founded in the 1970s by Domenico “Delfo” Berni and is currently run by his grandson, Gianni Pignattai, and his family.
The winery produces Sangiovese wines known for their elegant aromas, good structure, and long aging potential. Their Sangiovese grapes are grown in five different zones and are all worked manually. The cellar, located near the historic village, uses a traditional approach for transforming grapes and aging the wine in oak. The estate produces wines including Brunello di Montalcino DOCG and Rosso di Montalcino DOCG.
PIETROSO
The historical vineyard comprises about 1 ha spit across several terraces. The soil is a mixture of sand and rock, and the vines average 25 years in age.
Western exposure.
Altitude 550 m. Very fine, elegant wines.
FORNELLO
About 1 ha of Galestro soil on the eastern side of the hill of Montalcino at 400 m above sea level.
Planted in 1997, it delivers structured, rich wines.
The 2010 harvest allowed Pietroso to produce its first “Riserva” wine from this vineyard.
MONTOSOLI
Montosoli is considered the most prestigious cru in the Municipality of Montalcino. Our 1.3-ha vineyard is located at the top of the hill at 350 m above sea level and has a south-eastern exposure. The Galestro soil is typical of the area, and the vineyard was replanted in 2017.
COLOMBAIOLO
Close to the Abbey of Sant’Antimo at 450 m above sea level, with a south-eastern exposure. The heterogeneous soil composition contributes to wines that are softer and more rounded on the palate. 1.8-ha plot planted in 1998
