The 2010 vintage of Madonna del Piano is a masterpiece—a profound, age-defying Brunello Riserva from one of Montalcino’s greatest harvests. It offers explosive aromas of dark cherry, blackcurrant, violet, and sweet herbs, with undertones of leather, graphite, and wild fennel. On the palate, it is opulent yet precise, with finely etched tannins, bright acidity, and a mineral-driven finish that lingers for minutes. The 1.5L format enhances its longevity and slow evolution, making it ideal for long-term cellaring or grand occasions. A true icon of Sangiovese and a defining wine of its vintage.
Valdicava Description
Valdicava, nestled in the Montosoli zone of northern Montalcino, is one of the appellation’s most revered estates. Under the passionate leadership of Vincenzo Abbruzzese, Valdicava has become synonymous with depth, purity, and aging potential, championing Sangiovese in its most powerful expression. The estate follows organic farming practices, with an emphasis on soil health, low yields, and precise vinification. Its wines, particularly the single-vineyard Madonna del Piano Brunello Riserva, are celebrated for their muscular structure and striking aromatic complexity. Over the past three decades, Valdicava has built a legacy of crafting modern Brunellos with classical soul, earning its place among Tuscany’s elite and becoming a benchmark for collectors around the world.
