Val di Suga Description
This complex Rosso di Montalcino illustrates the generosity of the southern slope of the appellation, from which the grapes are carefully selected, with the grace of the wine type and the freshness of a Sangiovese whose wood ageing is shorter than for Brunello di Montalcino.
Floral, with notes of red fruit, especially cherries and licorice, blood oranges. Lingering and succulent, it is sapid and tannic, with a crisp finish.
Vinous Media: 91 Points
Dark depths of wilted violets, cedar, cloves, worn leather and dried strawberries form a seductive old-world bouquet as the 2021 Rosso di Montalcino Vigna Spuntali blossoms in the glass. This sweeps across the palate with a mineral-laden blend of orange and tart red berries as edgy tannins slowly mount toward the close. It finishes structured, full of tension and long with a staining of bitter blackberry that adds a crunchy sensation. The 2021 will require patience to show its best.
