The top wine from Mastrojanni comes from the small single vineyard Schiena d’Asino at an altitude of 385 meters, where Sangiovese thrives in clay, sand, and sandstone soils with southeast-southwest exposure. The 2020 vintage offers a dense, clear red color and an intense aroma of red fruits, balsamic, and a hint of herbs.

The taste opens powerfully and with marked structure before transitioning into a long, elegant, and generous aftertaste. It is a Brunello with both power and finesse, suitable for hearty dishes – Perfect to enjoy in the company of good friends.

The grapes are hand-harvested at the end of September and undergo 30 days of maceration. The wine ages for a full 42 months in large Allier barrels and then 12 months in the bottle. The result is a rare, complex, and deeply harmonious Brunello from Mastrojanni's most iconic parcel.

Critic reviews

95Robert Parker
The Wine Advocate
Produced like a Riserva, the Mastrojanni 2020 Brunello di Montalcino Vigna Schiena d'Asino shows a savory, quietly authoritative profile with dark fruit, firm structure and a subtle note of espresso bean that remains refined rather than dominant.
96Wine Spectator
A sapid, salty version, featuring bright cherry, raspberry, plum, iron, earth and tobacco aromas and flavors. Complex and beautifully balanced, with superb length and energy on the resonant finish.
95Falstaff
Bright, elegant ruby red. On the nose, notes of grilled watermelon, rosehips and strawberries, with subtle hints of candle wax, graphite and earthy nuances. Polished on the palate, with a rich structure, very fruity, not too alcoholic on the long and powerful finish.
