Why we follow Il Marroneto
The estate
Il Marroneto is one of Montalcino's most revered small estates, founded by Giuseppe Mori in 1974 in a former bell tower near the chapel of the Madonna delle Grazie. Now led by Alessandro and Iacopo Mori, it is a reference point for traditional, transparent Brunello.
The vineyards
A tiny holding of Sangiovese high on the northern slopes of Montalcino, farmed with minimal intervention. The Madonna delle Grazie cru sits beside the chapel that gives the wine its name.
In the vineyard
Traditional, low-intervention
In the glass
Pure, perfumed and precise: red cherry, rose, wild herbs and fine tannin, built for decades in the cellar. Among the most collectible Brunello made.

How allocations are offered
It records which producers and wines interest you, so we know who to contact when a release is confirmed.
Availability depends on what arrives and how many customers are waiting. In some years there is very little to go round.
Our team considers purchase history, genuine interest and intended enjoyment. We would rather a case went to someone who will open it and tell us what they thought than to whoever asked first.
Change what you follow at any time from My allocation requests. Release timing moves with the producer and the vintage, so the months on the release calendar are a guide rather than a promise.
