Podere La Palazzetta is a small, traditionally minded estate located in Castelnuovo dell’Abate, on the south eastern flank of Montalcino, an area increasingly recognised for producing Brunello of freshness, structure and longevity. The estate was founded in the 1998s by Alessandro Mori, who chose this zone specifically for its altitude, exposure to cooling air currents from Monte Amiata, and soils rich in galestro and clay. From the outset, Mori committed to organic farming, rejecting chemical inputs in favour of manual vineyard work, low yields and long growing cycles. Vineyards sit at higher elevations than much of Montalcino, which slows ripening and preserves acidity, resulting in a more classical, tension driven expression of Sangiovese. La Palazzetta has always aligned itself with a traditional Brunello philosophy, favouring long macerations, large neutral oak casks and extended ageing over modern extraction or barrique influence, with the Riserva bottling reserved only for vintages and parcels that can sustain prolonged maturation.

The Brunello di Montalcino 2020 comes from estate vineyards planted on galestro and clay soils at higher elevation, where slower ripening preserves acidity and aromatic detail. The 2020 vintage was warm but well balanced in this sector, producing a wine that combines ripe red and dark fruit with savoury depth and a firm mineral core. The structure is composed and finely built, with tannins that are present but measured, giving both immediate clarity and the capacity to age gracefully.
