The Neri family planted Pietradonice on the site of an onyx quarry in the southeast part of the zone using a selection of sangiovese grosso from their Cerretalto vineyard; they used the same selection to plant Le Centine, also in the south of the zone. Those vineyards, now coming into maturity, produced a brooding, intense Brunello, its flavors as dark as black plums, black mushrooms and tar. The tannins feel like they were carved from stone, wholesome and firm. Built to cellar for five years or more.
