Review: |
"Woodsy wildberries, plum and flowery undergrowth are nicely contrasted by a hint of camphor as the darkly alluring 2018 Rosso di Montalcino comes to life in the glass. This is a silky and pure expression of Sangiovese, showcasing mineral-tinged red berries and savory spices that slowly saturate the palate with youthful concentration. It leaves a coating of sweet tannins that create a classically dry impression while not getting in the way of the 2018’s inherent lively personality. This is simply breathtaking and a total overachiever in the Rosso category. (Drink between 2022-2026)" |
