“A quintessential Rosso, this elegant, delicious red hits all the right buttons. It opens with heady aromas of wild berries, blue flowers and baking spice while the savory, elegant palate delivers juicy Marasca cherry, blood orange, star anise and white pepper alongside polished tannins. Fresh acidity keeps it bright and balanced. Drink through 2028.” — 95 Points, Kerin O’Keefe, Wine Enthusiast
"The 2020 Rosso di Montalcino keeps you coming back to the glass to take in its vivid and rich bouquet, as dusty cedar spice box gives way to cloves, ripe strawberries and waxy rose. It soothes with silky textures and a pleasant inner sweetness, casting ripe red fruits and violet floral tones across the palate. This leaves a tart twang of wildberries and hints of sour citrus, as it tapers off fresh and with medium length." — 91 Points, Eric Guido, Vinous
Quality is consistent. Deeper bouquet and flavor than most Cali Zins. The Earth tones come thru beautifully about two years from Vintage. Wonderful
Red to contemplate on its own or with good food.
chianti at a good price- good value for everyday drinking
Not quite in same class as recent chianti from Wine Direct released earlier this year-but also half the price. Excellent value for a red wine: you don't have to worry about finding a superior food to match at this excellent price.
Hard pushed to find a NZ red at this price/quality ratio!
