The estate’s 2004 Rosso di Montalcino is an engaging effort. Soft and supple in personality, it displays a perfumed, floral nose along with red fruit and subtle sweet toasted oak flavors with outstanding length and plenty of freshness on the finish, demonstrating the heights Rosso can achieve in the hands of a serious producer. A very classy and elegant Rosso. Anticipated maturity: 2006-2010.
This small producer located in Castelnuovo dell’Abate has turned out two beautiful wines this year. The estate works with low yields and as a result these wines are packed with well-defined flavors in a style that shows excellent concentration and precision without coming across as heavy. Although the wines show some influence of barrique-aging in their oak tannins they are exceptionally well-balanced.
