Le Chiuse Rosso di Montalcino 2021
🇮🇹2021 Has Landed!🍷

Le Chiuse Rosso di Montalcino 2021

Sangiovese | Tuscany, Italy

Le Chiuse's Rosso di Montalcino just Keeps Getting Better! What a Rosso. I agree with Guido, it's dark and a little broody. Yet lively at the same time. Opening in the glass, blood orange, slate and dark spices layer into woody herbs. Incredibly complex and layered for a Rosso at this price point. Fine tannins with a playful cleansing grip wrap fruit of depth and length. A very good grape first Rosso, bold yet refreshing!Dark, animalistic and nearly feral, the 2021 Rosso di Montalcino is

Tenuta di Carleone Chianti Classico 2021

Sangiovese | Tuscany, Chianti Classico

Damn! My note is almost identical to the 2020!Radda is one of the cooler parts of Chianti Classico, as with the 2020, Sean has done the 2021 justice. Dominated by dark fruits with a pop of fresh red fruits layered with stalk spices & a little earthiness.There’s harmony & flow in this seamless elegant Chianti. Finishing with a fine sweep of bitterness that cleanses, followed by lingering flavours and a fine refreshing line of acid.A certain delicacy. The fine long tannins wi

Rosso doing it right! Fuligni's 'Ginestreto' is beautifully poised. Ever so devourable this is classic Sangio! Excellent. True to the Fuligni style, perhaps with an extra bit of complexity for the wine at this stage of its life. A wonderful core of fruit. This is more in the mold of a baby Brunello than a playful Rosso. Plush, with fine tannins, generous mid-palate and great length. The build in complexity with layers of intrigue, from earthy almost truffled pops. Long delicious. Plump and vital

L’Aietta Rosso di Montalcino 2022

Sangiovese | Tuscany, Italy

About L’Aietta – The Artist L’Aietta started in 2001, when I was still in high school. I discovered that the place where I had been going on Sundays with my family and friends to have picnics and barbecues,that had not only olive trees and a few vines, but these vines (more or less 1000 square […]

Fontodi Chiant Classico 2019

Sangiovese | Tuscany, Chianti Classico

The thirst-quenching nature combined with great intensity and personality draws you in!  More elegance than 18 looking good. Refined fun. With lovely red fruits, earthy, savoury with a little herbal pop. Pretty bloody serious Sangiovese for the coin. A very clever layer of oak in this. Complex with fine tannins with a slight build to mid-palate that’s going to work beautifully with loads of food. This should be very interesting with 5-10 years of age on it.

Gorelli Rosso di Montalcino 2019

Sangiovese | Tuscany, Italy

Speller is on the money, this is still closed (April 2023). Builds with time in the glass, the fruit leans toward the fine Burgundian style. The tannins are just a little edgy, as with the Brunello, as the new Botti season future vintages should see further refinement to the texture.  This clearly sits in between the Rosso & Brunello level. I like the cranberry descriptor and would add a musk and rose top note. A few years in bottle should see the tannins resolve fully and mid-palate weight

L’Erta di Radda Chianti Classico Riserva 2021

Red Blend | Tuscany, Chianti Classico

Grape first. A build in richness and intensity here over the Chianti Classico. Just 1ha vineyard of high elevation north facing. Serious dark and brooding in need of more time to reveal it’s full potential the depth and length here is impressive. The oak tannin just layers in seamlessly playing a supporting role. Elegant with incredible length. Very good and will deliver much more with time. This gives many a Brunello a kick in the ass! Chocolatey, yes, rich, yes, nothing like those boring oxi

Conti Costanti Rosso di Montalcino 2019
A True Baby Brunello!

Conti Costanti Rosso di Montalcino 2019

Sangiovese | Tuscany, Italy

A pretty handy Rosso resting a small step away from heading into the next league. This needs time by the 4th and 5th day the full potential of this Baby Brunello was on full display. Dark cherry, fresh blackberry fruit with an earthy feel, a little dried orange peel, plush long tannins. Layered in spices rolling through, exceptional length and depth. There's been a bump in price here, if I were to taste it blind I would say it was excellent value. Comparative youth aside in a couple of years if

Castello dei Rampolla Liù Merlot 2021

Merlot | Tuscany, Chianti Classico

Made with 100% Merlot, the Castello dei Rampolla 2021 Liù shows a note of spice and dried herb that frame a dark core of fruit. The wine is rich in appearance, but the mouthfeel remains elegantly slender and polished. There is pretty structural softness here that speaks to the spirit of the variety and the sunny brilliance of Panzano in Chianti. Peppery notes appear on the close. This is a release of 7,109 bottles and 20 magnums. Drink 2020-2040Monica Larner, The Wine Advocate 95 Points

Monteraponi ‘Baron’ Ugo’ Chianti Classico 2017

Red Blend | Tuscany, Chianti Classico

Seriously just watch the videos! The wines are as good as the setting in which they are made! I just want to go stay there and drink their Chianti! The 2017 Chianti Classico Baron'Ugo is a dark, potent wine. A rush of aromas and flavors hits the palate as this full-bodied, heady Chianti Classico offers its substantial richness and pure power. A wine of density and volume, the 2017 screams with character. Red cherry, spice, mint and blood orange saturate the palate. In 2017, warm, dry weather pus
