| Description: | Canalicchio di Sopra's history is also the history of Montalcino. Once a sharecropper, Primo Pacenti founded the estate in 1962 on land that his family had worked for generations. Primo was proud to be one of the original twelve members of the Brunello Consortium; when he retired, Primo handed Canalicchio di Sopra to his son-in-law, Pier Luigi Ripacciolo, and since 2001, the estate has been run by Pier Luigi's three children, Francesco, Marco, and Simonetta. With two vineyard parcels that sit north and east of the town of Montalcino, sheltered by Mount Amiata and kissed by sea breezes blowing off the Mediterranean, Canalicchio di Sopra's 47 acres occupy some the highest altitudes in the Brunello region and possess a superb range of microclimates. "Elegance" is the watchword at Canalicchio di Sopra, and this maker delivers, vintage after delicious vintage. |
