Montalcino
Montalcino appears in 4 articles of hers, from 2025 to 2026.
In her words
Patrizia Cencioni is based in Montalcino, home of one of Italy’s most recognised wines.
Winter in Montalcino and Montepulciano is a different kind of magic, softer, slower, and infinitely more atmospheric.
Tasting Brunello di Montalcino in its birthplace during winter feels intimate and unhurried, structured, savoury Sangiovese built for ageing, revealing itself slowly in the glass.
Visiting Montalcino and Montepulciano in winter offers something rare in modern travel: atmosphere without performance, authenticity without effort.
