Rosso di Montalcino, 2022
Sweet red fruits with camphor, licorice and a perfumed cherry rich finish, there is lovely sculpt and sinew to the tannin in 2022, which Luca puts down to a more classic harvest timeline in Montalcino compared to other areas of Tuscany. Aged for the full two years in large Slavonian oak casks, rains in early August ensured balance come harvest time.
critic reviews
The organic Poggio di Sotto 2022 Rosso di Montalcino could easily be mistaken for a Brunello, and a very good one at that, thanks to its depth, polish and composure. The wine offers a clear preview of the 2022 vintage with dark fruit aromas and medium- to full-bodied concentration, framed by a sweet, open texture that is neatly lifted by fresh acidity. Sourced from vineyards across the estates 20 hectares, this Rosso reflects Poggio di Sottos uncompromising standards in both farming and fruit selection, resulting in a release of 28,000 bottles plus larger formats.
