Encompassing over 80 hectares, the Altesino estate lies along the eastern hills of Montalcino in central Italy. The classy 14th century Palazzo Altesi houses the Altesino winery. The estate has always been a forerunner in the region, as innovators, Altesino saw to the introduction of the Cru classification which represents wines made from a single high-quality vineyard. The estate also encouraged the concept of futures in Brunello, a French practice in which wines are purchased before they are bottled. Altesino was also one of the first Italian producers to use French barriques for aging in 1979, and one of the first to produce Grappa di Brunello in 1977.
