Conti Constanti
Conti Costanti is a prestigious winery located in Montalcino, Tuscany, with a winemaking heritage that dates back to the mid-16th century. As one of the founding estates of the Brunello di Montalcino denomination, Conti Costanti has played a significant role in shaping the region's winemaking reputation. The estate has been in the hands of the Costanti family since the late 1700s, and today it is led by Andrea Costanti, a geologist by training who took over the estate in 1983.
The winery is renowned for producing terroir-driven, artisan wines that reflect the unique characteristics of the Matrichese cru, where the vineyards are located at an altitude of 1,312 to 1,476 feet above sea level. The soil composition, which includes galestro and ancient fossils, contributes to the complexity and elegance of the wines. Conti Costanti's Brunello di Montalcino and Rosso di Montalcino are celebrated for their rich flavors, featuring notes of cherry, plum, and spice, combined with a smooth, velvety texture.
Antonio Galloni, a respected wine critic, has praised the estate, stating, "These handmade, artisan wines are some of the most individualistic, terroir-driven wines in Montalcino. Andrea Costanti is at the top of his game." This endorsement highlights the exceptional quality and craftsmanship that define Conti Costanti's offerings.
