Rosso di Montalcino DOC 2022
Mastrojanni's rich and concentrated Rosso di Montalcino smells of a dark, seductive blend of sweet herbs, menthol and tobacco intertwined with dried cherries and redcurrants. It soothes with a deep, silky texture, which is then replaced by tart red berries and savoury spices over a stimulating acidity. Finishes balsamic with a hint of sour citrus and sweet, polished tannins that frame the experience beautifully. SUPERIORE.DE

“Botrys” Moscadello di Montalcino DOC 2015 · in gift box
Moscadello was originally the first wine from the Montalcino appellation, long before the triumphant rise of Brunello. Mastrojanni's Moscadello di Montalcino is a blend of late harvested Moscato, Malvasia di Candia and Sauvignon Bianco. The wine matures for two years in barriques and tonneaux. Intensely fragrant bouquet with plenty of power and character, aromas of candied fruit, honey and brown sugar. These notes are reproduced with every sip with impressively brilliant precision and astonishing freshness. This rare wine (only 1,300 bottles were filled) matures for two years in barriques and tonneaux and is traditionally enjoyed instead of a dessert or with cantuccini. Very delicate. SUPERIORE.DE

Brunello di Montalcino DOCG 2019
The fruit for this Brunello comes from a 14.4 hectare south-facing vineyard with loamy soils and lots of boulders. Complex, dark and earthy bouquet of ripe black cherries, enriched with notes of dried flowers, spices, crushed stones and a hint of animal musk. The palate reveals silky textures and pure Sangiovese fruit, underpinned by earthy tones supported by a network of minerals and tannins. The mouthfeel is always lean, tangy and soft, although you can feel the wine's full body and great appeal at all times. The final is polished and refined and lasts for several minutes. SUPERIORE.DE

Brunello di Montalcino “Vigna Loreto” DOCG 2017
The approx. 1.6 hectare single vineyard Loreto is situated on a slope directly next to the winery and has an ideal south-east exposure. Bright berry bouquet with notes of ripe cherries, plums, cassis, leather and spices. The rich palate reveals warm tones of game, Indian spices and cured meat, topped with a surprising intensity of bright red cherries.

The 1.6-hectare Loreto vineyard is located on a slope right next to the winery and has an ideal south-east exposure. Vigna Loreto is only vinified in the best vintages and is an even more intense interpretation of the Sangiovese grape. On the palate, the texture is both creamy and robust, with a depth and fullness that make it very rich and exceptional. With further aeration, beautiful notes of black fruits, tobacco and spices. Aristocratic, powerful and very long. SUPERIORE.DE

Brunello di Montalcino “Vigna Loreto” DOCG 2019
Once upon a time, there was a vineyard that was particularly spoilt by the Montalcino sun; it still bears the name Vigna Loreto to this day. Only in the best vintages does a Brunello come from this exposed site that is bursting with richness, complexity and assertiveness. It possesses a textural depth and balance that is captivating. Fruit, spice and very unique nuances such as savoury herbs, liquorice, tobacco and a firm tannin make this impressive wine monument linger on the palate and in the memory for a long time. With every sip, it opens up further layers and you might almost sink into it, such is the shift in the boundaries of what is comparable. The 2019 Vigna Loreto is not only extremely elegant, but also profound and almost outrageously juicy. SUPERIORE.DE

Brunello di Montalcino “Vigna Schiena d’Asino” DOCG 2016
Schiena d'Asino is a small vineyard from which this fabulous Brunello is produced exclusively in excellent years. Schiena captivates with its richness and overall intensity and is endowed with a lot of energy and varietal purity. Sage, rosemary and a host of Mediterranean herbs open up first, followed by graphite, smoke, incense, dark spices and black stone fruits. Wild, intensely mineral notes underpin the fruit and capture the essence of the great site. For an exceptional wine, this Brunello remains remarkably light on its feet, yet it is an introspective, brooding wine that will need at least a few years to show all it has to offer. SUPERIORE.DE

The fruit for this wine comes from a single vineyard that stretches over the crest of a hill. The name Schiena d'Asino (Donkey Ridge) is a reminder of this unique geography. The purity of the fruit is breathtaking and the wine emphasises the qualities that make Sangiovese one of the noblest of all Italian grapes. It offers a crystalline intensity with forthcoming flavours of bright cherries, balsamic herbs, aniseed, pressed violets and spice. This ensemble is balanced and nuanced.

To press a Brunello with the fruit and elegance of a Bordeaux - this was the declared aim of the former Roman lawyer Gabriele Mastrojanni. The lover of wines from the Bordelais therefore founded an azienda south of the hilltop town of Montalcino in the most beautiful natural surroundings not far from Castelnuovo dell'Abate and started making wine himself. Since 1992 Andrea Machetti has been responsible for the renowned estate as Managing Director - first for Mastrojanni and later for the new owner, the Illy family. The coffee roasters from Trieste took over the winemaking business in 2008, after they had already taken over the Italian chocolate manufacturer Domori and the Parisian tea house Dammann. Francesco Illy, one of four grandsons of the company founder, has been working in the picturesque Tuscan wine village since 1997.
It is largely thanks to Machetti's enthusiasm that the historic winery, run today by Antonio Mastrojanni, has remained true to its tradition to this day. As a top oenologist, the soul of the famous wine house is supported by its long-standing friend Maurizio Castelli. The very loose, loamy and calcareous soils, the terrain protected from climatic attacks by Monte Amiata, the ideal south-southeast locations and a late harvest of perfect grapes regularly produce wines that have even gained in strength, clarity and concentration since the complete renewal of the plots by the new owners and the technical improvements in the cellar.
Main variety of Mastrojanni is and remains the Sangiovese for Brunello di Montalcino as well as the super drops Schiena d'Asino and Vigna Loreto (which is built in bigger barrels). In addition, a small amount of Cabernet Sauvignon is reserved for the Cuvée San Pio. It is not until later that the estate decides which layers are to be used for Brunello or Rosso. Since the Rosso of the house also has a very high density and intensity, it would be insufficiently characterized as a base wine.
The Illy family has mainly invested in the basement. Fermentation plants were renewed and many medium-sized barrels were purchased. The style of the house is typical for the southwest of the Montalcino growing area: the wines are rich in extracts and tannins, and they are still a little rough when they are young. SUPERIORE.DE
"Andrea Machetti's confirmation at the head of the company is a clear signal of continuity, which can be found in the charismatic Brunello: substantial, tasty wines, as can be found in the vineyards of Castelnuovo dell' Abate can expect, but at the same time proud and limited to the essentials."Gambero Rosso
