Rosso di Montalcino Sangiovese
Montalcino, Siena, Tuscany, Italy
Iron, blood, red cherry lozenge, black cherry, balsamic, slight savory / intense & direct freshness / Serious Sangiovese—goes toe to toe with many brunellos, in my opinion, and totally shines / on the skin for 30 days, site-specific. . . Not just the leftovers, but a true version of the real thing. and totally vivid at 5 years!

Perfect state of fruit ripeness of fruit with a fresh and lively vibe. Goes deep with a defined earthy, iron like minerality and a savory saltiness. Complete coverage on the palate, where the fruit is brought forward by the ripe, fine grained and playfully charged tannins and a fresh spine. Complexity and drinkability combined. Outstanding for a Rosso di Montalcino and a great QPR. Day 2 and the wine is more comfortable and reveals another dimension. An elegant wine from a classy artist! Salute!

I wish more RdM would be so fresh, refined and detailed as this version from @Riccardo Campinoti High altitude vineyards and a hands off approach in the cellar are key factors in creating this quaffable and juicy wine.
