Think of Rosso di Montalcino as the younger, fresher and more immediately approachable sibling to Brunello – still unmistakably Montalcino, but without needing years in the cellar before you can get stuck in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe wine is made from \u003cstrong\u003e100% Sangiovese\u003c\/strong\u003e, sourced from a six-hectare vineyard planted in the 1990s at around 250–300 metres above sea level. The naturally brighter style of fruit from this site makes it particularly well suited to Rosso di Montalcino.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAfter fermentation, the wine spends \u003cstrong\u003e12 months maturing in traditional Slavonian oak botti\u003c\/strong\u003e, followed by additional time in bottle before release.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is wonderfully inviting: \u003cstrong\u003eripe cherry, blackberry and plum\u003c\/strong\u003e are joined by cedar, spice and more savoury notes. Fresh acidity keeps the ripe fruit in check, while fine tannins give it enough structure without making it overly serious.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy We Like It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is exactly what good Rosso di Montalcino should be – all the character of proper Tuscan Sangiovese but in a fresher, more approachable style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you love \u003cstrong\u003eChianti Classico, Brunello di Montalcino or good Italian reds\u003c\/strong\u003e in general, this is well worth a bottle. There's enough complexity to make it interesting, but you don't need to overthink it. Open it, give it a decent glass and get some Italian food on the table.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNose:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ripe cherry and blackberry with cedarwood, dried herbs and warming spice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePalate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Juicy plum, cherry and red berry fruit with fresh acidity, savoury spice and fine, polished tannins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Elegant and persistent with lingering red fruit, spice and a classic savoury Tuscan character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFood Pairing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eA proper food wine.
