Brunello di Piani degli Alpaca
Origin: Italy
Breed: Huacaya
Sex: Male
Color: Dark Brown
Date of Birth: 27 July 2022
Brunello combines the genes of champions from around the world — carefully selected to bring together a beautiful color, perfect conformation, and the highest fleece quality.
His sire, Inca Drambuie (true black), is a multi-champion who earned titles in Switzerland, Austria, and Germany. He is known for his deep, uniform pigmentation and dense, silky fleece. Drambuie is the son of Lillyfield Jack of Spades of Inca, a black champion from the UK whose lineage traces back to the legendary Purrumbete Inti of Australia. The Purrumbete herd — pioneers of alpaca breeding outside South America — brought to global genetics exceptional fleece density, structure, and lustre, as well as rare, high-quality color genetics.
His dam, Matilde di Piani degli Alpaca, is the daughter of Furze Park Pilot (1st place at the British Alpaca Society National Show 2017, fawn), a male known for combining strong conformation with highly uniform fleece. Pilot is the son of Furze Park Uluru and Aurora of Wessex. On the Furze Park side, we find notable names such as Viracocha Prophecy of Anzac, Furze Park Poppy, and Rural Alianza Wiracocha (of Wessex) — lines renowned for their fibre density and well-defined, consistent crimp. On the Aurora of Wessex side, we have EP Cambridge Tidemark and Ashwood Honolulu — imports that contributed finesse and lustre at the level of top-tier white alpacas to the coloured lines.
Thanks to this outstanding genetic background, Brunello stands out for his fine, even fleece with a beautiful lustre. Moreover, for the third year in a row, he has maintained fibre parameters around 16 microns, with a low standard deviation below 4, which clearly confirms the exceptional stability of his fleece quality over time.
