Notes | |||
"A traditional, fresh velvety wine, Rosso di Montalcino comes from the Estate’s best vineyards, the same that produce Brunello; 100% Sangiovese with persistent, fruity aromas and considerable structure. This is a very versatile wine suitable for average periods of aging." —winemaker |
Critical Acclaim | |||
"Balsamic with dried black cherries and worn leather, the 2020 Rosso di Montalcino opens in the glass. This is a soft yet sweetly spiced effort, with juicy acidity and ripe red fruits that take on a crunchy feel through the close. It leaves a staining of violet and lavender through the finale, while tapering off pleasantly fresh." —Vinous |
