The greatest reward is always the pride of having a wine of great class.
The most important award is to see it improve from year to year and from vintage to vintage.
We don’t work to win prizes but to offer our clients a constant qualitative continuity and maybe an improvement from vintage to vintage.
This is also recognised by the institutions that evaluate wines, from the great international newspapers to the exhibitions and contests.
The Mastrojanni wine estate has always held an excellent position in the Brunello di Montalcino panorama and in 2009 from an average of all the results obtained from all of the world’s newspapers, it positioned itself amongst the top ten wine estates of Montalcino.
However, our wines have a “long shelf-life”, which means that they almost always reach the top of their organoleptic expression after the outsourcing of its aromas; in other words, a long time after the magazines have forgotten that particular vintage..
Of course, evaluation done at the beginning, when the five-year-old wine is presented to the public, is only indicative as far as the quality is concerned, but very often a wine which at the beginning is less appreciated, ends up evolving into a true party for your palate after 10-15 years. Many of our clients know this and keep their old vintages right where they can see them.
