Ciacci Piccolomini d'Aragona Brunello di Montalcino Pianrosso 2020 is one of the standout Brunellos from the warm 2020 vintage and comes from the estate's flagship Pianrosso vineyard, located in the Castelnuovo dell'Abate zone of southern Montalcino. This isn't a delicate Brunello—it's a powerful, southern Montalcino expression that can handle rich, flavorful food. Perfect for grilled or roasted red meat. The wine's acidity cuts through the fat while the tannins soften against the protein. Don't forget pasta and truffle dishes: Risotto with porcini mushrooms, and mushroom ravioli with brown butter.
