2015 | Pian delle Vigne | delle Vigne 'Vigna Ferrovia'

Vignaferrovia is ruby red in color. Its nose is rich and complex. Notes of red fruit merge with hints of fig jam, dates and citrus marmalade; its bouquet is completed by floral aromas of lavender, delicate balsamic and iodized scents and light sensations of resin, sandalwood, chocolate and cinnamon. On the palate, its entry is soft, defined by silky tannins. Vignaferrovia is a refined, energetic and vibrant wine, characterized by excellent persistence and freshness.

Reviews:

• Wine Enthusiast: Forest-floor, scorched earth, grilled herb and stewed prune aromas slowly come to the forefront along with a whiff of blue flower. The savory, full-bodied palate is fresher than the nose, delivering dried cherry, blood orange, licorice, mocha and a dollop of vanilla framed in taut, fine-grained tannins.

• Wine Spectator: Already showing some development in the way of fading plum and cherry fruit, fruitcake and leather aromas and flavors, this red is nonetheless fresh and firm on the steely finish.

Producer Information

Pian delle Vigne is an Italian wine estate situated 4 miles (6 km) south of Montalcino in Tuscany. The estate's Brunello di Montalcino DOCG and Brunello di Montalcino DOCG Riserva are the flagship wines of the portfolio.Pian delle Vigne was acquired by Marchesi Antinori in 1995 and spans 184 hectares (470 acres), 65 ha (161 acres) of which are planted to Sangiovese. The vineyards are planted on predominantly southeast facing slopes of clayey and calcareous soils rich in stones at altitudes between 430 to 825 feet (130 to 250 meters) above sea level. The "older" half of these vineyards was planted to vine between 1996 and 1997.The temperate climate found in Montalcino allows the Sangiovese grapes to be harvested around two weeks earlier than those in the Chianti Classico region, typically in mid-September. A Sangiovese-based Rosso di Montalcino DOC is also included in the wine portfolio from Pian delle Vigne.
