The Young Gun of Montalcino
Francesco Mulinari is a man on a mission: from the age of 17 his passion has been Brunello and today, whilst he has the smallest cellar in Montalcino, his wines are some of the best I have tasted from this region.

While he was still in school, Francesco Mulinari's parents, living in the town of Montalcino, bought a snip of land with olives and abandoned vines just outside Montalcino's fortified walls on a steep slope for the sole purpose of holding family picnics. With the spectacular natural beauty of the land all around Montalcino it is hard to imagine why they chose such a steep site. Perhaps the fact that L'Aietta, as the spot is locally known, was an army encampment during the siege of Montalcino in 1555, inspired them. It is now, rightfully, the tiny wine estate's name.

2018 Rosso di Montalcino
Usually $64 - Special Offer $59
Scents of wild red berry and botanical herb mingle with earthy aromas evoking truffle, new leather and freshly tilled soil on this fragrant red. Reflecting the nose, the racy, medium-bodied palate delivers juicy pomegranate, sour cherry, ground clove and a hint of game alongside vibrant acidity and taut tannins

2016 Brunello di Montalcino
Usually $169 - Special Offer $159
The L'Aietta 2016Brunello is simply mind blowing. Supremely balanced, complexity and length to burn. This is a traditional styled Brunello has a twenty year life span ahead of it. The more I try 2016Brunello, the more I am convinced this will be a very long cellaring vintage and up there with the great vintages from Montalcino.
