Montepeloso Eneo Toscana (750ML)

From Toscana IGT

Vintage:	2020
Description:	94 JS / 93 Vm / 93 Wa / 92 Fs. Fresh raspberries and blackberries with smoke and asphalt. Medium-to full-bodied. Tight and focused. Creamy and very fine tannins. Give it two or three years to open but already delicious. -James Suckling. The 2020 Eneo is bright and effusive, with notable aromatic presence but perhaps a bit less textural intensity than most years. That will make it easy to drink with minimal cellaring. Red cherry fruit, blood orange, mint, cinnamon and a hint of cedar linger.-Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media. This is a blend of 65% Sangiovese, 25% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Malvasia Nera from a warm vintage. The 2020 Eneo doesn't have the same pulp and mass that we see in the 2019 vintage; however, it does show lots of richness and intensity, especially in terms of bouquet. Perhaps the aromas are more focused and sharp in this wine, and there is a pretty mineral note that cuts a through line connecting the bouquet to the medium to full-bodied mouthfeel. This vintage feels more accessible compared to the 2019, and the alcohol content is a high 15%. Production is 29,000 bottles.-Monica Larner, The Wine Advocate. Rich, sparkling ruby red with a dark core. Filigree on the nose with subtle notes of ripe cherries, blueberries and red roses. On the palate with fine fruit melt, creamy and with beautiful fruit, juicy, young but fine-grained tannins, slightly salty in the lingering finish.-Falstaff
