Vinfolio

Dark garnet hue. Lovely, inviting aromatics that flirt with plum, cherry and mulberry delicately accented with a cedar/sweet tobacco spice; has a floaty high-note of blood orange. Silky, juicy freshness of black plum and bing cherry that is straightforward and no-nonsense with complementary elegant tannins. Perfect, supportive acid with underpinnings of roasted coffee and hint of spice. A serious effort deserving extended consideration.

Winemaker's Notes:

Another benchmark for Rosso di Montalcino. Pieri puts great effort into his Rosso, and remains the only producer to ever earn Gambero Rossos tre bicchieri for a Rosso. This wine has plum, nut, and citrus character.
