Renieri

Renieri is a Brunello di Montalcino estate owned by the Maccari family, producing Sangiovese Grosso from approximately 10 hectares of vineyards at moderate elevations in the northeastern sector of the denomination. The estate produces Brunello di Montalcino as its primary wine, averaging $53 per bottle across 100 auction lots with a compressed price range of $1–$77 — the tightest price range of any Brunello producer in this dataset. The narrow price band is unusual and suggests either very consistent lot quality and conditions, or a limited number of vintages represented. The modest average of $53 for Brunello DOCG places Renieri in the value tier of the appellation — below the average of more prestigious small producers like Uccelliera, Case Basse, or Poggio di Sotto. The estate farms traditionally and produces in the classic Brunello style, but without the critical acclaim or micro-production scarcity that elevates prices. For auction buyers seeking properly made Brunello di Montalcino at below-average prices, Renieri represents a reliable appellation entry point. The estate's output suggests production of approximately 30,000–40,000 bottles annually.
