VILLA AL CORTILE - PICCINI 1882<br />
Situated on the southern side of Montalcino, with its<br />
12 ha of vineyards stretching from Montosoli to Lavacchio,<br />
Villa al Cortile is the jewel in the crown of the Piccini<br />
family’s estates. The vineyards in the northernmost area are<br />
north and north-east-facing and enjoy cooler temperatures,<br />
responding better to the seasonal trends in recent years<br />
and global warming. The mission here is to respect the<br />
relationship between the area and vines as much as possible,<br />
on the basis of the vintage, with simplicity and tradition.<br />
Hence, over-extraction and exaggerated concentration are<br />
outlawed in favour of harmony and balance.<br />
