Dino Ciacci, the founder of Mocali, was one of the very first producers who joined together and formed the group that would one day become the Consorzio del Vino Brunello di Montalcino. Their belief in the terroir of Montalcino and capabilities of the Sangiovese grape in its native soils started a quality revolution, which made Brunello into what it is today. From small beginnings on a fully functional farm, Mocali has grown into a 20 hectare estate, producing Brunello from galestro soils at an average elevation of 400 meters. The estate's classic Brunello is simply a joy to taste, produced in a traditional and remarkably fresh style, while the Vigna Raunate, hailing from the estate’s oldest vines, is fermented in large oak vats, adding another level of depth and richness. From there the wine spends one year in tonneaux followed by 24 months in smaller oak barrels. The two wines couldn’t be more different, yet I find them both quite enjoyable.
