Sesti Description

Nestled in the southern reaches of Montalcino near Castelnuovo dell’Abate, Sesti is a boutique estate revered for its soulful, artisanal wines and biodynamic philosophy.

Today, his daughter Elisa Sesti oversees much of the winemaking, continuing the legacy with a thoughtful, hands-on approach.

Wines are vinified using natural yeasts, aged in large Slavonian oak casks, and bottled with minimal sulfur. S
