Altesino

In the heart of southern Tuscany, the landscape of Montalcino has remained unchanged and mostly wild. The area where the wines of Montalcino are produced coincides with the historical borders of the Municipality of Montalcino. Here man has successfully created a respectful relationship with nature, leaving the charm and magical appeal of an area unchanged over time. In 2004, UNESCO declared this unique environment a World Heritage Site.

Our history

Set amongst the north eastern hills of Montalcino, the imposing structure of the 15th century Palazzo Altesi overlooks the estate. First built by the Tuscan family Tricerchi, Altesino has been owned by the Gnudi Angelini family since 2002.

Our Philosophy

The winery’s outlook combines an essential respect for the trust in tradition with a forward-looking perspective, resulting in wine that retains the unique and high quality reputation of Brunello.

The cellar

Part of historical cellars are situated within the historic walls of Palazzo Altesi. The modern winery was built with a focus on eco-sustainability: due to its underground location it is perfectly insulated.
