"Crushed strawberries and blueberries contrast lavender pastille and spice as the 2023 Rosso di Montalcino opens in the glass. Vibrant acidity elevates crisp wild berry fruits and mineral tones on the juicy palate, which tapers off with a sweet-and-sour sensation."

"Rich and spicy, featuring rose petals, sour cherries, blood orange and a hint of earth. Light-footed yet persistent, with a medium body and vibrant acidity. Drink or hold."

"The 2022 Rosso di Montalcino is pretty and lifted, showcasing cherry-berry fruits and rosy florals. It turns toward the savory spectrum on the palate, with tart red fruits and a peppery herbal thrust. The 2022 finishes gently tannic and long with lingering rosy inner florals."
