Altesino Brunello di Montalcino Riserva DOCG is a benchmark Italian red wine from Montalcino, Tuscany, produced by one of the region's pioneering estates. Made from 100% Sangiovese Grosso (Brunello), this wine draws fruit from the estate's top vineyards including Altesino, Macina, Pianezzine, and Castelnuovo dell'Abate.

The Riserva designation requires extended aging beyond the standard Brunello, typically spending at least two years in oak barrels followed by additional bottle maturation before release. This results in a wine of exceptional structure, complexity, and longevity. Tasting notes highlight notes of ripe strawberries, crushed roses, sweet herbs, licorice, brimstone, and petrichor, with a polished and smooth mouthfeel, finely tuned tannins, and expertly integrated oak showing light spice. The wine offers elegant length and is built to age gracefully for 15 or more years, earning 95-point scores from Wine Advocate and Jeb Dunnuck.

Altesino has been producing Montalcino Sangiovese since 1972 and is recognized for a house style characterized by balance, finesse, and intensity. This wine is sold in a standard 750ML bottle. Costco lists this as a case-pack item (6 x 750ML).
