Salvia, dusty, black cherry. Lifted, fine, persistent minerality. Estate is situated just above Pertimali, and the young proprietors work for Sassetti. Pure class, as you’d imagine in such a situation. Fantastic! #cerbaia #rossodimontalcino #sangiovesegrosso — 6 years ago
#rossodimontalcino #montalcino #tuscany I was pleasantly surprised. — 4 years ago
Wait one second--this is a Rosso? The nose showed a seductive, and truly tuscan display of sweet cherries, raspberry, dusty spice, dried flowers, floral undergrowth and hints of new leather. On the palate, I found silky textures with perfectly balanced acidity that tugged at the senses as crunchy red fruits mixed with sweet spices and hints of light tannin to form a tactile and almost thirst quenching experience. The finish was vibrant with mineral-infused sweet cherry and lingering spice. Wow! My only regret is that I didn't buy a case. #stelladicamplato #rossodimontalcino — 8 years ago
Ripe, quite juicy fruit with candied red fruit aromas. On the palate medium acidity and red fruits with medium(+) ripe tannins, sweet spice flavours and a little cocoa. very good, alcoholic finish with a medium(+) finish. Overall fruitier than other #brunello which in some respects is a good thing because I found many Brunello’s oxidized (especially the Riservas) but that comes with a trade off and this wine had less complexity and less interesting tertiary aromas and flavors and a shorter finish than other wines. The #qpr is great though. Seemed more like a premium #rossodimontalcino than a Brunello. — 4 years ago
Nice #rossodimontalcino with robust tannins, earthy spice but goes down nice and pairs well with hard cheeses. — 7 years ago

Substantial #rossodimontalcino concentrated slightly spicy cherry, forest floor, leather nose; classic #sangiovese earthy-spicy cherry on palate, touch of cigar box, easy going tannins. First-rate pairing with wild boar Bolognese pappardelle pasta. — 2 years ago
