In the bottle with the yellow wax seal, the Mastrojanni 2020 Brunello di Montalcino Vigna Loreto (with 9,500 bottles made) embraces dark fruit nuances of damson plum, mulberry and pomegranate concentrate. This is one of the estate's most beautiful vineyard plots that you can admire as you make your way to the winery entrance. The site is awash in late-morning light. As the bouquet takes on more air, it shows blue flower, grilled rosemary and root beer. The effect is powerful yet nuanced and complex at the same time. This wine has more textural density and better length compared to many of its peers from the 2020 vintage.

Estate

Mastrojanni has been writing history with its wines since 1975, collecting awards from all over the world. Today, thanks to an exceptional terroir and men who have believed in it for decades, Mastrojanni has become one of the most respected Montalcino producers. The Mastrojanni winery lies in Castelnuovo dell’Abate, in the south eastern most corner of Montalcino Municipality, in the Province of Siena. An artistic and architectural heritage, surrounded by the majesty of its natural landscapes and, above all, an area particularly suitable for vine cultivation: the homeland of Brunello.

Tasting notes

The nobility and purity of the indigenous Sangiovese are enhanced by the stone and tuff of the Loreto vineyard. Extremely seductive wine, with fruity notes and spicy hints admirably fused in a harmonious whole, in perfect balance between power and sweetness, strength and fragrance. Bright and deep ruby red. Aromas of exotic spices and fresh tobacco leaves enhance its ripe red fruit notes. Broad and enveloping entry, supported by a potent and ripe tannin, to conclude with a silky and elegant ending.
