Fantastic price for this delicious little wine.
A lot more in the glass that you would expect.
Almondy, oily and very long — 2 months ago

This has a polished surface feel that is modern, even though it is also quite authentic and traditional in its aromatic profile. — 2 years ago

Black cherries mix with a spice box of autumnal aromas, camphor and smoke to create a captivating display as the 2016 Montefalco Rosso Riserva opens up in the glass. Its silky textures usher in a polished display of red fruits laced with sweet inner florals, all framed nicely by saline-minerality. Tart berries, licorice and a hint of wild herbs linger long through the lightly structured but also slightly bitter finale. The 2016 Riserva is a blend of 80% Sangiovese and 20% Sagrantino.

Too young but still very nice with a 5h decant - suggest checking back in another 3-5 years. Tannins are very present, but the fruit and earth are very nice. Good acid too, especially for a hot vintage. — a year ago

Man the Appasiemento is really showing in this wine. Yowza. Tar, roses, raisins. Smells almost like Lessona Sforzato. Really weird. Some nice older library books, old wood and sultana. What a crazy nose. I like it. Palate is much more classic than the nose suggests. Big, ripe but also classy and elegant with dark cherry fruit and wood shop shavings. Luscious and juicy but my only issue is it’s drying and the tannins outpace the fruit. Drink now versus aging it longer. — 2 years ago

Castello Romitorio Rosso Di Montalcino DOC 2018: Medium-bodied. Nice balanced tannins & acidity. Elegant nose. Bright red fruit flavors followed by herbs, tobacco, earth and a subtle touch of oak. The finish was smooth & lasting. Considering its age, this wine was intriguing, vibrant & fresh; a definite winner and that is why this RdM will be one of the wines offered tonight at the UHM wine fundraiser event.
