9.2

Dark ruby color. Aromas of blackberry/black currant, baking spices and dried herbs. The full palate also features black berry/currant fruit with hints of black olives, earthy mushrooms, graphite and black pepper. Long smoky and tangy finish. Firm tannins and soft acidity. Full bodied and rustic but austere at the same time. Great balance of fruit and tertiary flavors. Pleasant surprise. Thanks for sharing, Keith S! Revisited in November 2024. Earthy and delicious! — 3 months ago

The 2022 Rosso di Montalcino opens with violet, lavender, blackberry and clove aromas. Soothingly round and pliant, it sweeps across the palate with ripe wild berry fruits and sweet spice. Juicy acidity maintains balance as the 2022 leaves a pleasantly bitter tinge and a fine coating of tannin. $25.00 (Eric Guido, Vinous, October 2024) — 2 months ago
