The organic Col d'Orcia 2020 Rosso di Montalcino (with 220,000 bottles made) is simple and bright with aromas that recall dried cherry skin or candied raspberry. The heat and the dry conditions of the vintage are reflected in those ripe aromas. However, the wine remains true to Sangiovese with a lean mouthfeel and crisp acidity.

Well-defined cherry, strawberry and mineral flavors are shaded by earth and tobacco accents in this compact red, whose chalky tannins leave a grip on the finish. Best from 2022 through 2025. 15,000 cases made, 2,000 cases imported.??–BS??Region: Italy / Rosso di Montalcino Select to Add
