Siro Pacenti Brunello di Montalcino 'Vecchie Vigne' DOCG 2017
Vintage Character
Brunello di Montalcino Vecchie Vigne 2017 from Siro Pacenti is a striking showcase of Sangiovese’s depth and complexity, crafted from some of the region’s oldest vines. The 2017 vintage in Montalcino was shaped by a hot, dry summer, resulting in reduced yields and highly concentrated fruit; despite these demanding conditions, the wine achieved impressive balance and ripeness, underscoring the estate’s meticulous vineyard management.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
Awarded 95 points by Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, this Brunello opens with an alluring bouquet of ripe red cherries, wild strawberries, and dried rose petals, complemented by subtle notes of tobacco, forest floor, and spice. On the palate, vibrant acidity and fine-grained tannins frame layers of dark fruit, touches of licorice, and a persistent mineral finish that reflects the vineyard’s galestro-rich soils. This wine pairs beautifully with classic Tuscan dishes such as bistecca alla fiorentina or aged Parmigiano-Reggiano, and its freshness and structure also make it a compelling match for Peking duck, where it balances the richness of the dish.
Winery Background
Founded in the 1970s by Siro Pacenti and now led by his son Giancarlo, the Siro Pacenti estate has earned a reputation for producing some of Montalcino’s most refined and age-worthy Brunellos. The "Vecchie Vigne" bottling is sourced exclusively from estate vineyards planted between 1971 and 1977, a testament to the Pacenti family’s dedication to old-vine quality and careful vineyard stewardship. Giancarlo Pacenti is recognized for his innovative yet respectful approach, combining traditional Sangiovese expression with modern precision to craft wines of clarity, elegance, and pronounced terroir. The estate employs sustainable vineyard practices and minimal intervention in the cellar, with careful oak aging that enhances complexity without masking the fruit. This commitment to excellence and respect for the land distinguishes Siro Pacenti as a benchmark producer in the Brunello di Montalcino DOCG.
