Shavings of cedar, blood orange, crushed cherries, dried flowers and stone dust form a mesmerizing bouquet as the 2019 Rossi di Montalcino slowly opens in the glass. There are depths of ripe textural fruit here, offset by zesty spices and bright acidity that sweeten the expression while energizing it as well. A web of fine tannins coats the palate through the finish, coupled with a core of primary concentration and sweet inner florals that seem to never truly fade. What a glorious acheivement from Poggio di Sotto. The 2019 spent a whopping 43 days macerating on the skins, followed by 29 months of refinement in cask. Its undoubtedly a baby Brunello.

A soft and creamy-textured red with cherry and floral character. Some dried orange peel, too. Light to medium body. From organically grown grapes.
