Mastrojanni is a Tuscan wine estate located at Castelnuovo dell'Abate in the far southeast of the Montalcino municipality, best known for its wines from the Sangiovese grape variety.
Gabriele Mastrojanni founded the estate in 1975, when he purchased the San Pio and Loreto estates and planted the first vines. The combined property now covers 96 hectares, of which 33ha (81.5 of 237 acres) is planted to vineyards. Here, an altitude of 150-420 meters (500-1400 feet) above sea level allows for aspects facing all points of the compass. 17ha (42 acres) of these vines qualify for Brunello di Montalcino.
Rosso di Montalcino is a denomination for red wines made from the Sangiovese grape and found in the same defined area as the famed Brunello di Montalcino DOCG of central southern Tuscany. The DOC was created in 1984 in order to make the most of the fruit from younger vines of new plantings.
