Altesino is a Tuscan winery that has helped to define the quality of Montalcino's Brunello since the 1970s, known for elegant wines that combine structure with finesse.

Altesino, established in 1970 and now owned by Elisabetta Gnudi Angelini, manages 80 hectares of Sangiovese-dominated vineyards across four distinct sites in Montalcino, including their prized Montosoli vineyard with its distinctive galestro and limestone soils at 350 meters elevation. Their winemaking balances tradition with measured innovation, combining hand harvesting and extended aging protocols (36-48 months for premium wines) with selective modern techniques, while their pioneering of single-vineyard cru expressions demonstrates their commitment to authentic terroir representation.
