Tenuta Corte Pavone Loacker Wine Estates
Close your eyes – cue swelling instrumental music. Open them… and welcome to Tuscany and to Loacker's Tenuta Corte Pavone. Monumental wrought iron gates, a seamlessly infinite cypress-lined road, the view over the world-famous wine city of Montalcino. Talk of a Hollywood moment – simply unforgettable. Once you reach the estate, you will experience wine at its very best: an involving bouquet, a memorable mouthfeel, and breath-taking vineyards.
100% biodynamic since the beginning in 1996, the Loacker family is the pioneer of organic wine agriculture in Italy since 1979 on their winery in Bolzano-South Tyrol.
In Montalcino Hayo Loacker set up a dynamic micro parcelling of the land, dividing it in different areas to define seven individual single vineyard of Brunello – the "7 dynamic Brunello Crus’. The crus are dynamic because the final grape selection is optimised individually every year with new measurements taken within the individual area during the harvesting period.

The Brunello di Montalcino vintage 1997 Corte Pavone appears surprisingly youthful, showing signs of brick-red color, classic cherry notes, a present freshness, a vintage of the century! 4 years of wood aging, at that time still with some barrique, otherwise large wooden cask.
