Rosso di Montalcino

DOC

Rosso di Montalcino is a wine with its own unique identity and a strong personality. This wine’s style highlights the freshness and integrity of the Sangiovese from this terroir and balances intensity with an immediate appeal.

Climate trend

An unusually warm winter encouraged early budding with a consequent high risk of frost damage. During spring, rain and relatively high temperatures seemed to provide ideal conditions for the proliferation of the spores that cause downy mildew. Rainfall continued until the beginning of September. The lack of light slowed the ripening process, cancelling out, day by day, the phenological properties accumulated during the month of May. Excellent exposure and constant breezes enabled the grapes to reach harvest time in good health and with ideal ripeness, giving rise to wines with distinct personality and elegance.

Jancis Robinson

Brillano ancora i Sangiovese di San Polo, grazie soprattutto alla prova del Rosso '15: frutta estiva, humus, timbri fumè, coniuga maturità e sapore in un sorso decisamente materico per la tipologia.

James Suckling

Mid-weight Rosso with a mouthwatering mid-palate and a polite burst of tannin at the end. Youthful – with a couple of years in bottle it will settle fully. Organic in conversion

2 stelle
