Note di degustazione
The 2018 Rosso di Montalcino is so delicate and floral, with hints of wet stone giving way to freshly sliced plum and sage. Here I’m finding a refreshing wave of herbal-tinged red berries and minerals, gaining a hint of exotic inner florals toward the close. At times, the 2018 feels almost weightless, reminding me more of a perfumed red Burgundy than a Rosso, while tapering off to hints of sour melon and citrus. I believe I initially underrated this beautiful Rosso.

An intense display of woodland berries in a cloud of crushed stone, dried florals and cedar lifts effortlessly from the 2018 Rosso di Montalcino, as notes of worn leather and undergrowth join the mix. On the palate, silky textures flood the senses, offset by mineral-tinged black cherry, and brisk acids add verve. The finish is medium in length and subtle, yet shows purity of Sangiovese fruit, as dried berries give way to salty minerals and finally a hint of tannic bite.
