Il Marroneto: the excellence of Brunello di Montalcino
The collection Il Marroneto gathers some of the most refined interpretations of Brunello di Montalcino and Rosso di Montalcino crafted by one of the most recognized wineries in the region. Founded by Alessandro Mori in 1974, Il Marroneto represents a reference point for those seeking elegant, deep Tuscan wines capable of evolving over time.
The name of the winery recalls an ancient building linked to local tradition, a detail that well narrates the identity of the project: respect for history, attention to Sangiovese, and an essential production vision focused on the expressive purity of the vineyard.
The style of Il Marroneto
The wines of Il Marroneto are appreciated for their finesse, aromatic complexity, and great balance. The collection includes labels such as Brunello di Montalcino DOCG, selections like Madonna delle Grazie, as well as expressions of Rosso di Montalcino DOCG and the selection Ignaccio. In every bottle, a production approach emerges that prioritizes time, precision, and an authentic reading of the Montalcino terroir.
Among the most representative wines stand out the Brunello di Montalcino 2019 DOCG, the Brunello di Montalcino 2018 DOCG, the Brunello di Montalcino 2017 DOCG, and the Brunello di Montalcino DOCG 2020, along with prestigious versions such as Brunello di Montalcino Selezione Madonna delle Grazie and Brunello di Montalcino selezione Madonna delle Grazie Riserva 2016.
The territory of Montalcino and Sangiovese
The strength of these wines arises from their connection to Montalcino, one of the most important areas in Italy for Sangiovese. Here, the grape variety finds ideal conditions to produce wines of structure, tension, and great aging potential. In the case of Il Marroneto, Sangiovese is rigorously enhanced, resulting in a wine that combines depth, freshness, and an elegant aromatic profile.
The presence in the collection of different vintages and formats, including the Brunello di Montalcino 2016 Magnum, allows for a choice between wines to drink today and bottles intended for longer aging in the cellar.
When to choose them and with what pairings
The wines of Il Marroneto are ideal for those seeking a great Tuscan red for special occasions, vertical tastings, or collection moments. The Brunello di Montalcino pairs perfectly with structured dishes such as red meats, game, braised dishes, and flavorful preparations of Tuscan cuisine. The Rosso di Montalcino, on the other hand, offers a more immediate style but is always consistent with the winery's signature, and is also perfect with rich first courses and medium-structured second courses.
