From this winery
Pininoā€™s history finds its roots in 1874, when the lawyer Tito Costanti, a pioneer in the promotion of Brunello, purchased the property, which has had a pivotal role in the Brunello history, being one of the historical cellars of the Consortium. Indeed, back in 1950, it was one of the first names listed in the register of Brunello producers, as well as being one of the founders themselves. Throughout the years, the property has experienced many changes of ownership, each one aimed to preserve and enhance Montalcino winemaking excellence.

Today, this tradition is carried on by Ferruccio Ferragamoā€™s family, the style and strategy set by Salvatore Ferragamoā€™s guidance. This marks a substantial turning point for the estate, a winning combination between the Brunello di Montalcino DOCG tradition and prestige and the sustainable approach that is a hallmark of Il Borro Toscana. The purchase of the property in Montalcino itā€™s part of the Ferragamoā€™s family vision of expanding their winemaking activity in one of the worldwide most appreciated denominations, a symbol of deeply rooted enological excellence.
