Slank, frisk og jordlig Rosso Di Montalcino. Syrlige røde bær, urter og integrert eik. Enkel og god Rosso!

Higher acid, tart and delightful. From Cork Dork recommendation. (893 views) | | | Tasted by sven.borre.larsen@gmail.com on 12/22/2020: 89. Typical Montalcino. Brownish and rustic. (843 views) | | | Tasted by GrandeSerataFuori on 11/25/2020 & rated 85 points: Medium color. Lean, singular, a bit disappointing. Red currant & cranberry. Very natural and a decent enough food wine with good acidity, but one of the lesser bottles of Rossos I've had.
Saved a glass, which was still drinkable on day three. (893 views) | | | Tasted by mrbaby on 9/20/2020: Nice rosso. Bright cherry up front with some nice herbal aromatics. Some minerality on the back. Fresh style. A little alcohol showing, but not offensive. Could see this becoming my house red. (663 views) |
| La Palazzetta (Flavio Fanti) Producer WebsiteSangioveseSANGIOVESE: (Pronounced "sahn-joh-vhe-se").
Sangiovese - Italy's claim to fame, the pride of Tuscany. Traditionally made, the wines are full of cherry fruit, earth, and cedar. It produces Chianti (Classico), Rosso di Montalcino, Brunello di Montalcino, Rosso di Montepulciano, Montefalco Rosso, and many others. Sangiovese is also the backbone in many of the acclaimed, modern-styled "Super-Tuscans", where it is blended with Bordeaux varietals (Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc) and typically aged in French oak barrels, resulting a wine primed for the international market in the style of a typical California cabernet: oaky, high-alcohol, and a ripe, jammy, fruit-forward profile.[16]
Semi-classic grape grown in the Tuscany region of Italy. Used to produce the Chianti and other Tuscan red wines. Has many clonal versions, two of which seem to predominate. The Sangiovese Grosso clone Brunello variety is used for the dark red, traditionally powerful and slow-maturing "Brunello di Montalcino" wine. The other is the Sangiovese Piccolo, also known under the historical synonym name Sangioveto, used for standard Chianti Classico DOC wines. Old vine derived wine is often used in the better versions, needing several years ageing to reach peak. A third clone, Morellino, is used in a popular wine blend with the same name found in the southern part of the province. Recent efforts in California with clones of this variety are very promising, producing medium-bodied reds with rich cherry or plumlike flavors and aromas. Among the available clonal versions are R6 and R7, derived from the Montalcino region of Italy, having average productivity/ripening and producing small berries on medium size clusters. R10 and R24 are well-recommended. R23, listed as deriving from the Emilia-Romagna region, has good vigor with medium-small clusters with earlier ripening. R102 derives from the Montepulciano region and reported to have average vigor with moderate productivity that results in higher sugar levels and good acidity from medium-small berries on medium-small clusters. Has synonym name of Nielluccio where grown in Corsica.Italy Italian Wines (ItalianMade.com, The Italian Trade Commission) | Italian Wine Guide on the WineDoctorTuscany Tuscany (ItalianMade.com) | TuscanytMontalcino Montalcino websiteRosso di Montalcino Consorzio del Vino Brunello di Montalcino |
