Ripe black cherry and plum plunge from the glass in the 2020 Siro Pacenti Brunello di Montalcino Pelagrilli, layered with hints of balsamic spice, wild herbs and a gentle smokiness from barrique. The palate is plush and mouth-filling yet impressively focused, with cool-toned acidity and sweet, powdery tannins giving shape to the dark, juicy fruit. Long, velvety and modern in style, it’s a bold Brunello that still retains balance and lift, and will gain complexity with a few more years in bottle.
Bistecca alla Fiorentina; Porcini mushroom risotto; Slow-braised lamb shanks with herbs

Pelagrilli is Siro Pacenti’s flagship Brunello di Montalcino, made from estate Sangiovese grown on the cooler, mineral-rich Pelagrilli parcels north of Montalcino; it walks a line between power and elegance, often matured in French barrique to add structure while preserving vivid dark-cherry and wild-herb fruit. Expect layers of black cherry and plum with leather, tobacco/cedar and savory Mediterranean herbs, finely knit tannins and serious aging potential—an expressive, terroir-driven Brunello from a long-established family estate.
