    They could hardly have come from more different places: Caroline Pobitzer grew up in South Tyrol, in a Renaissance castle, and was the guardian of a 600-year-old wine cellar there for decades – the oldest and largest in Europe. Jan Hendrik Erbach came from Karlsruhe, studied viticulture and oenology and gained experience in France. In 1997, the two of them jointly founded Pian dell'Orino – a small estate of just under six hectares of Sangiovese, right on the border of Montalcino's most famous address: the Tenuta il Greppo of the Biondi-Santi family. Not a bad neighbour. Biodynamic since 2003, Demeter-certified since 2018. 22 different Sangiovese clones on seven plots, lunar calendar for pruning, nettle and camomile tea for the soil. Jan and Caroline work on an area that only allows for around 17,000 bottles a year – for all the estate's wines combined.

    The Piandorino comes from the vineyard around the house – younger vines, calcareous clay, volcanic influences from nearby Monte Amiata. Spontaneous fermentation, strict berry selection, 17 months in large oak barrels. No compromise in the cellar, even if the result is available earlier than the Brunelli. 2019 was an exceptional year in Montalcino – and the Piandorino carries it with ease: fresh cherry, wild berries, herbal spice, lively acidity, a tannin that carries without being demanding. A wine that invites – and shows what this small, exceptional winery is capable of. SUPERIORE.DE
