The 2017 Rosso di Montalcino is a simple and straightforward wine that goes into wood for six months and into bottle for another four months before it hits the market. You get great value with a wine like this, which offers pristine primary fruit followed by grilled herb and moist potting soil. In all, you get all the best qualities of stripped down Sangiovese produced in a warm vintage. However, don't underestimate the wine's structure, because you do feel those integrated tannins at the back. The fruit is cheerful and bright. Bottle production is 24,800 units strong.

Light-weight and balanced, featuring strawberry and cherry notes, mingling with earth and wild herb details. Ends with a firm, linear feel. Drink now through 2023. 1,800 cases made, 1,100 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Rosso di Montalcino Select to Add
