Canalicchio di Sopra

A short history

Canalicchio di Sopra is a family estate in Montalcino founded by Primo Pacenti in 1962, one of the twelve founding members of the Brunello consorzio. Today it is run by the founder's grandchildren — Francesco, Marco and Simonetta Ripaccioli — keeping to the traditional style of large Slavonian casks and minimal intervention.
