Pinino – Grappa of Brunello di Montalcino – Avvenice^ Spirits

Pinino – Brunello di Montalcino since 1874

Founded in 1874 by lawyer Tito Costanti, one of the first intellectuals who studied and laid the foundations for the fame of Brunello, Pinino is one of the wineries that marked the history of the Brunello di Montalcino Consortium. In 1950, it was actually one of the first wineries registered in the Brunello producers’ register, in addition to being among its founders. In 2003, it was acquired by the Austrian Gamon family and the Spanish Hernández family, with the common intent of producing quality wines, and it remained in their hands until the purchase by the Ferragamo family.

Pinino – Grappa of Brunello di Montalcino

The grape selection of Pinino is strict in order to assure low yield and high wine quality. Harvest is done manually in crates.

Fermentation happens in modern and technological steel vats that guarantee a soft treatment of the skins. These techniques, together with the excellence of the raw material allow us to obtain our Grappa of Brunello.

After fermentation and racking, which happens in a delicate way, wine is moved in wood and marcs are hermetically packed and, in the same day, transferred to Distilleria Alboni, one of the most known and respected artisanal distilleries in Italy.

Distilleria Alboni works our marcs of Brunello with passion and tradition producing a grappa that distinguishes itself for its softness and for its fresh and fruity bouquet.

Aged grappa differentiates itself for its refinement in oak kegs for a 4 month circa.
