Discover Aietta: A Boutique Montalcino Treasure Selected for Tuscany Uncorked Society

At Tuscany Uncorked Society, our mission is to uncover the most compelling stories and producers in Tuscany—wineries that go beyond the bottle to deliver soul, passion, and uniqueness. Today, we are proud to introduce one of our most exclusive discoveries: Aietta, a rising star nestled in the heart of Montalcino.

This is not just another Brunello. This is Aietta—small, sincere, and singular.


Aietta: A Story Rooted in Family, Passion, and Land

Founded by Francesco Mulinari in the early 2000s when he was still a teenager, Aietta is the embodiment of new-generation winemaking rooted in tradition. Located just above the medieval village of Castello di Velona, the winery takes its name from the nearby hamlet of “Aietta,” long abandoned but rich in history.

What makes this winery exceptional is its micro-scale and personal touch. With less than two hectares of vineyards planted in the high-altitude slopes of Montalcino, Aietta produces a limited number of bottles each year, making every release a true collector’s item.


What Makes Aietta Wines Unique?

1. Altitude and Exposure

Aietta’s vineyards lie at over 500 meters above sea level—among the highest in the Brunello di Montalcino DOCG. This altitude brings cooler temperatures, longer ripening periods, and a distinctive aromatic finesse that sets Aietta wines apart.

2. Handcrafted Production

Every stage of production is carried out by Francesco himself, from vineyard management to bottling. This hands-on approach ensures that each bottle reflects the micro-terroir and the winemaker’s philosophy: elegance over power, purity over manipulation.

3. Minimal Intervention Philosophy

No chemical fertilizers, no aggressive oak aging, no shortcuts. Aietta’s wines are pure expressions of Sangiovese, respecting the land and letting the fruit speak for itself.

4. Limited Availability

With annual production rarely exceeding a few thousand bottles, Aietta’s wines are highly sought-after, and access is limited to those who truly appreciate artisan winemaking.
