Tenuta Buon Tempo is located in the far southern corner of Montalcino, called Castelnuovo
dell’Abate, an area with a unique vocation for winegrowing. The 26 hectare property is composed of vines, olive trees and woods and slopes down to the Orcia river on the border that marks the end of the appellation. In the early 1990’s, 12 hectares were chosen from the best area for planting vines. Farmed organically since the beginning of the project, the conversion was certified from 2018 after a few years of testing and seeing a consistent improvement in the quality of the fruit and the environment of soils, plants and air. These ambitious goals of proprietor Per Landin are applied with a combination of hard work in the
vineyard, investing heavily in the cellar and thanks to the collaboration of a dedicated team guided by Alberto Machetti with the help expert consultants Attilio Pagli and Stefano Bartolomei

Tenuta Buon Tempo Brunello di Montalcino Oliveto P.56 150cl 2018
14% abv
“The 2018 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva P.56 Oliveto lifts up from the glass with a seductive mix of medicinal cherries, sweet spice and dusty rose. This glides across the palate, elegant and refined, with brisk acids and cooling mineral tones that give way to a solid core of wild berry fruit. The P.56 Oliveto finishes structured and with admirable length, leaving hints of hard red candies and licorice to slowly taper off.”
“Oliveto P. 56”, derives from the number in the land registry of the plot of land with vines that are approximately 25 years old, and from the name of the old farm, founded in the 1940s. From this vineyard, situated at 350 meters above sea level, only the smallest top-quality bunches are selected, to produce – following a painstaking process in the winery – a wine that is complex and elegant but also richly structured and long-lived.
The “P.56” Riserva is produced only in outstanding years from the point of view of the climate and the quality of the fruit, from a selection of less than 10% of the finest grapes from the oldest vineyards. In some years the wine presents itself for longer ageing and is bottled as a Riserva, in 2018 aging was as standard and this was bottled as a single cru.
