2022 Canalicchio di Sopra, Rosso di Montalcino

Der Rosso di Montalcino von Canalicchio di Sopra wird meist aus den jüngsten Weinbergen des Weinguts erzeugt und ist das Aushängeschild der Canalicchio di Sopra-Weine: ein junger, fruchtiger und vielseitiger Ausdruck des Sangiovese. Der erste Jahrgang wurde 1975 produziert.

Vinous, Eric Guido: 2021 Canalicchio di Sopra, Rosso di Montalcino 91+

Remarkably pretty and spicy to the core, the 2022 Rosso di Montalcino blossoms in the glass with a bouquet of rose petals and wild strawberries offset by white pepper. This is lifted and graceful in style with a salty, saline core that grumbles beneath its ripe wild berry fruits. It finishes tense and structured, with a trace of sour cranberry and citrus that tugs at the cheeks. The purity of Sangiovese is on full display here. Have patience with the 2022 because the best is yet to come.
