In
2014
eight
Americans
made
their
first
trip
to
Italy.
On
a
very
short
list
of
wineries
to
visit
was
Il
Palazzone,
as
we
enjoyed
the
wine
so
much.
We
emailed
the
estate
and
started
what
has
now
been
a
six
year
friendship
with
Laura
who
manages
the
estate!
We
were
greeted
at
the
estate
by
Laura
standing
in
the
drive
in
front
of
the
cellar
waving
and
greeting
us
with
a
smile
followed
by
a
hug
when
we
got
out
of
the
car.
The
tasting
was
something
our
family
talks
about
each
time
we
have
a
bottle
of
any
Il
Palazzone
wine
(which
has
become
very
often).
Of
course
the
wine
was
exceptional
and
we
were
even
able
to
taste
the
2010
that
was
not
even
released
yet!
We
placed
our
first
large
order
of
wine
as
a
family
while
onsite
that
day.
It
is
now
a
tradition
to
place
at
least
an
annual
but
usually
biannual
order
and
our
cellars
now
hold
vintages
from
2001
to
2015
Brunello
di
Montalcino
as
well
as
Rosso
di
Montalcino,
Toscana,
Grappa
and
olive
oil!
We
returned
in
2017
and
could
not
make
a
trip
to
Italy
without
another
visit
and
tasting
at
Il
Palazzone.
Once
again
we
were
greeted
by
Laura
and
hugs
all
around.
Then
another
amazing
tasting
in
the
cellar.
If
you
are
in
Italy
make
the
trip
to
Montalcino
and
do
not
miss
a
tasting
at
Il
Palazzone!
If
you
cannot
make
it
to
Montalcino
find
the
wine,
oil
or
grappa
by
Il
Palazzone
and
buy
it!
I
am
very
late
posting
this
review
for
the
visits
to
the
estate.
However,
we
drank
a
bottle
of
the
2015
this
weekend
after
being
taken
back
to
a
better
time
before
COVID
I
decided
I
needed
to
let
others
know
about
Il
Palazzone!
