TASTING NOTES
92pts + - Vinous
"The 2022 Rosso di Montalcino entices with a whiff of mint leaf and sage before giving way to crushed black cherries, clove and white smoke. This shows the ripeness of the vintage in a beautifully balanced package, with mineral-laced red and blue fruits that swirl across textures of pure silk. It finishes incredibly long, repeating its mineral strength. Sweet tannins linger through the violet-tinged finale. The 2022 is an understated beauty."
91pts - James Suckling
"Notes of fresh cherries and raspberries with spices, dried herbs and crushed stones. Medium-bodied, crunchy and fresh with dusty tannins and pure, vivid fruit. Chalky finish. Drink now."
90pts - Jeb Dunnuck
"A ripe red color, the 2022 Rosso Di Montalcino is a potent little Rosso on the nose, with notes of wild cherries, anise, and pine needles. Medium-bodied, with good structure, it's showing the warmth of the vintage, with modest acidity. but it retains good freshness in spite of that. It's a very charming wine to enjoy over the next 2-3 years."
92pts - Kerin O'Keefe
"Fragrant blue flower aromas mingle with leather, underbrush, juniper and spice on the quintessential 2022 Rosso from Uccelliera. Full-bodied but also youthfully fresh and balanced, the delicious palate delivers ripe Morello cherry, licorice and dried mint alongside polished tannins. It's already accessible so enjoy over the next few years to capture the succulent fruit. Drink through 2027."
92pts - Decanter
"Andrea Cortonesi's reputation for Brunello continues to grow, but the Rosso remains under the radar. This traditionally made wine has a rich, spicy nose with plenty of tomato puree and black cherry. The palate is firm and structured, with bags of tannins, showing good acidity and chew. It should continue to develop well over the next four to six years. Bold, gutsy, crowdpleasing and thoroughly Tuscan, this is a wine for the famous cucina povera – dishes with beans and oil, and fat-spiked meats."
