The vintage 2019 produced grapes of excellent fragrance with persuasive fruit notes. The blend of our Rosso di Montalcino comes in greater proportion from the Le Chiuse vineyards and from vineyard La Quercia. This vintage gave expression of great freshness and aromatic complexity, based on a good but not predominant structure.

Deep ruby color with concentrated bramble fruit, succulent cherries and blood orange. A very juicy palate with refreshing acidity, sound balance and fine tannic structure. Enjoy now but has the potential to keep and blossom into a more complex wine up to the next 10 years.

Reviews

Decanter – “A blend of Sangiovese grapes from Podernovone – which lies at 500 metres above sea level on the southeast hillside of Montalcino with a southwest exposure – and Canalicchio on the northern side of the village. The vines were planted in 1998 for the former vineyard, and in 1989 for the latter. ‘Our Rosso is produced by the same grapes as Brunello,’ said Laura Brunelli.

This new 2019 bottling is more concentrated than the lighter 2018, and more balanced than the warm 2017. This wine, traditionally aged in large oak vessels for one year, is extremely fresh and not without complexity. Red currants, wild strawberry, black pepper and juniper aromas are followed by a brightness of savory red fruits on the medium-bodied palate. It has velvety tannins and refreshing, integrated acidity. A really great interpretation of the terroir.” (94 Pts)
