Old-school Brunello from the fabled Montosoli hill — a family estate the insiders hoard.

Sassetti Livio Pertimali is a traditional Montalcino name with prized holdings on Montosoli, the north-facing hill widely considered one of the greatest crus for Brunello. This is 100% Sangiovese Grosso in the classic mold — structured, savory and built to age — from a family that has quietly made reference-point Brunello for decades.

Montosoli-sourced Brunello from a traditional family estate is exactly what Tuscan collectors chase. Rich, structured Sangiovese from a top site → the famous Brunello labels cost far more → at $84.99 you're buying grand-cru Montalcino terroir.

  • 100% Sangiovese Grosso
  • Brunello di Montalcino — Montosoli hill fruit
  • Sassetti Livio Pertimali — traditional family estate
  • Structured and age-worthy; the 2020 vintage

Ripe dark cherry, dried herbs, leather and sweet spice over firm, fine-grained tannins and bright Sangiovese acidity. Translation: classic, savory Montalcino — powerful but perfumed, with the structure to age a decade or more.

Traditional Brunello from one of Montalcino's great hills, at a fraction of the marquee price. Exactly the bottle to cellar for a milestone.
