|---|---|
| Description: | Ciacci Piccolomini is one of the most sought-after producers in all of Italy. This ancient estate has 35 hectares of superior holdings in the prized Castelnuovo dell'Abate zone, including the ‘Pianrosso' vineyard (meaning ‘red field,' a reference to the iron rich soils) and the ‘Fonte' vineyard, which produces grapes for the Rosso di Montalcino. Often considered the "younger sibling" to the more structured Brunello, the Rosso di Montalcino is also produced from 100% Sangiovese grapes. Red berries (raspberries, wild strawberries) with hints of flowers, citrus and spice on the nose open to a medium-bodied palate, with nice structure and fine tannins. Though the Rosso can age quite well, this red is immediately approachable, an enjoyable wine to drink now while the Brunello waits patiently in the cellar Producer: Ciacci Piccolomini d'Aragona Country: Italy Region: Tuscany Varietal: Sangiovese Appellation: Rosso di Montalcino Vintage: 2022 Size: 750ml |
