Founded by Pierluigi Talenti, the winery is now run by his grandson Riccardo, who carries on the family tradition with a focus on innovation and enhancing the local terroir.

Our 16 hectares of vineyards, divided into 9 parcels on the sun-kissed southern slopes of Montalcino, are cultivated with the utmost care and dedication. Every single vine is tended with the goal of selecting only the finest grapes, to craft wines that express balance, elegance, and pure enjoyment.

Vinification takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, where delicate punch-downs and pump-overs are carried out to respect and enhance the unique character of each parcel.

The aging process continues in 500-liter tonneaux and large oak barrels (25 and 30 hectoliters) from both French and Slavonian oak, where time and wood work together to develop complexity and harmony.

After about ten months, we carefully select the Rosso di Montalcino directly from the barrels, while the Brunello continues its slow and patient aging for nearly three years. Completing our collection are the single-vineyard Brunello Piero and the Brunello Riserva Pian di Conte - crafted only in exceptional vintages.

In addition to the Montalcino vineyards, the estate manages 6 hectares outside the region, which act as a true laboratory for experimenting with different grape varieties and winemaking techniques. This is where wines like Talenti Vintage Rosso IGT (Sangiovese and Petit Verdot) and OOPS Rosato IGT (100% Sangiovese) are created, with a more immediate approach, yet always aiming to produce wines with character that reflect the winery’s continuous pursuit of innovation.

With an annual production of around 70,000 bottles, the winery strikes the perfect balance between tradition and modernity, offering authentic, elegant wines that are deeply rooted in the territory.
