Description: | 91 Wa / 91 JS / 90 Vm / 90 Fb / 16 Jr. The Podere Forte 2021 Orcia Rocca d'Orcia Villaggio (made with certified organic and biodynamic Sangiovese) has a bright core of cherry fruit and wild berry that feels fresh and intact. It offers crisp aromas of tart fruit, and the bouquet is void of any over-ripeness or heaviness. In fact, this bottle has a fun and approachable personality, making it perfect for a simple dinner of pork chops and roasted potatoes.-Monica Larner, The Wine Advocate. Aromas of plums, cherries and red berries follow through to a medium-bodied palate with bright red-berry flavors and lightly firm tannins. Good acidity keeps it clean and fresh. Sangiovese. From biodynamically grown grapes with Demeter certification. Drink now.-James Suckling. Peppery rose and violet give way to crushed raspberries and spice as the 2021 Rocca d'Orcia Villaggio opens in the glass. This is racy and sleek with silky textures and vibrant acidity that enlivens its tart wild berry fruits. It tapers off with tension, leaving the mouth watering for more as hints of licorice and a tinge of blackberry fade. The Villaggio is deep and beautifully balanced, especially considering the warmth of the vintage.-Eric Guido, Vinous Media. 100% Sangiovese; aromas of red plum, morel cherry, red poppy and bramble. Medium-full with expressive ripeness, very good acidity, notable varietal purity and significant persistence. Give a year or two to settle down; peak in 6-8 years.-Tom Hyland, Forbes. Ripe and sweet – you can really taste that sun! Lightly coffee-grounds finish. But a little varietal bite on the end.-Jancis Robinson |
