The 2007 Rosso di Montalcino is simply beautiful. This is a surprisingly dense, rich Rosso that flows onto the palate with dark morello cherries, herbs, flowers and tobacco, coating every inch of the palate with generous fruit. High-toned floral notes add a sense of lift on the close. Readers who love traditionally made wines and are seeking a fairly priced Rosso will find much to admire in this exceptionally beautiful wine from Andrea Costanti. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2017. This is a beautiful set of new releases from Costanti, a reference-point producer of traditionally made Brunello and Rosso. Importer: Empson, USA, Alexandria, VA; tel. (703) 684-0900
