Fattoria Del Pino, nestled in the prestigious Montosoli Cru—the first cru in the history of Brunello di Montalcino—is the vision and creation of Jessica Pellegrini, one of Montalcino's most exciting rising stars. With her small but mighty 7-hectare estate located north of Montalcino, in an area she fondly refers to as "the ocean side," Jessica shares this hallowed ground with legendary producers like Altesino and Le Chiuse. Yet, her wines have carved out their own distinctive place among these icons.
Jessica, a self-taught winemaker, embarked on her winemaking journey in 2010, a year that would be heralded as the vintage of the century. While her debut vintage may have benefited from extraordinary conditions, it was her skill, intuition, and dedication that truly set her apart. Year after year, Jessica has crafted wines that reflect the elegance and finesse that Montosoli is renowned for, proving that her success is no mere coincidence.
Her Brunello di Montalcino wines embody the terroir's unique characteristics, offering a balance of power and grace that speaks to Jessica's profound understanding of the land. Fattoria Del Pino is not just a testament to Jessica Pellegrini’s talent; it is a reflection of her passion, her perseverance, and her place among the new generation of winemakers who continue to elevate the legacy of Brunello di Montalcino.
