Description

The old vines of the Vigna Schiena d'Asino express the maximum expression of the native Sangiovese, offering a wine of great personality, tradition and elegance where the finely woven tannic texture amplifies the complex and varied aromatic notes. The tension of an intact tannin with the boost of a dynamic acidity guarantees an extraordinary aging potential.

In Castelnuovo dell’Abate, at the far southeastern corner of Montalcino, lies a piece of land that remained unnoticed for a long time. At a time when few dared, we began our winemaking adventure, driven by passion and dedication, where the presence of the Orcia River and Mount Amiata creates a unique microclimate.

We have always felt the need to challenge ourselves. Since November 2022, we have embarked on a transformative journey, moving towards a holistic approach to cultivation. Currently, our agricultural methods are based on non-invasive practices. At Mastrojanni, herbicides have never been used, and since November 2022, no chemical products have been applied. We cultivate the land with respect, preserving biodiversity and maintaining the genetic heritage of our vineyards. It is our deep understanding of the soil that guides the care of the vineyards along with the attentive listening to nature by the people who work for it.

Time seems to tell us that the true wonder of these places lies in their identity, inspiring us, transcending even those who own the land. Read more
