Saladini Pilastri

Montepulciano from Marche's limestone soils and continental climate.

Saladini Pilastri produces Montepulciano-based wines from Marche, in central Italy's Adriatic region. The winery's portfolio centers on expressions of this native red variety, which thrives in the area's continental climate and limestone-rich soils. Pregio del Conte, the flagship release, captures the grape's dark fruit intensity and structured tannins. Rosso Piceno Vigna Monteprandone Superiore and Rosso Piceno Montetinello Superiore—both Montepulciano-driven wines from the region's classified Rosso Piceno appellation—demonstrate the winery's focus on terroir-driven bottlings. The wines have been assessed by Wine Enthusiast, Wine Advocate, Decanter, and Wine Spectator. Marche's continental conditions and elevation produce Montepulciano with freshness and minerality alongside ripe tannins, a profile evident in the winery's core releases.
