 Tasted by Stanrocks on 8/18/2022: NR

Not my Sangiovese style anymore, too old ? chocolate and cooked fruits on the nose, tar, mint and eucalypt are coming, maybe needs a little more time, but it is already day 2... day one was really closed and not showing much, left it with the cork and a half glass less in the bottle.

Palate is a bit warm, alcohol and with still a big tannic structure, fruit is gone, strange phase here again... leave it alone a little more ? Harsh finish

Really a stunner young up to 91+ but now it is in a strange phase for 2/3 years... not sure it ll improve (414 views)
 Tasted by SchlaepDog on 10/11/2019 & rated 90 points: Nice Rosso, fully mature. Lots of barnyard on the nose, but there is plenty of red cherry fruit accented by saddle leather, Tuscan earth, underbrush, and thyme/oregano notes on the palette. Drink now through 2020. (1003 views)
 Tasted by TastdaTore on 2/17/2017 & rated 88 points: Mrk rubinrd farge. Duft av mrke rde br med innslag av tobakk, lr og krydder. Et litt surstlig anslag mot ganen og med fortsatt noen skarpe tanniner som snerper og rsket godt i munnen. En medium kropp med medium lengde. (1863 views)
 Tasted by Taffi on 9/24/2016 & rated 70 points: Jeg kan ikke forstå at jeg kunne kjøpe dette her. Smaker søtt og kvalmende. Prøvde over flere kvelder, men halve flasken endte til slutt i vasken :-( Dessverre har jeg enda flere flasker igjen.
God at det av og til er fulle gjester i hus ;-) (1833 views)
 Tasted by Batts on 9/12/2016 & rated 87 points: Light-medium body. Rustic. Leather, tobacco dominate. The fruit is understated. Not a typical Rosso but by no means a bad wine. (1719 views)
 Tasted by plinymajor on 9/8/2016 & rated 89 points: The wine looks onder than it tastes. Still very youthfull and only entering its drinking window. Nose of cherries, plums and cocoa. Vibrant acidity and juicy fruit which is more ripe than a chianti classico but needs more time to unfold. Bought a case of it last year, together with a case of Collosorbo 13 RdM. The Collosorbo was always more approachable and is beautiful too, but this one will stand longer. Which is nice, because the Collosorbo will be empty by the time this starts to shine... (1540 views)
 Tasted by SteveVermeer on 7/17/2016 & rated 88 points: Lite but still nice, good fruit but a little to much acid. (1312 views)
 Tasted by BuzzzzOff on 11/19/2015 & rated 80 points: Tasted at Rendezvous by Kerry Wines, Hong Kong. 197 wines. We managed to sip 32 in two hours. Hard work…but happy to roll up our sleeves, exercise our swirling wrists, put on our wine spectacles, clear our noses and cleanse our palates….we do what we can to make the world a better place!!!

A berry, berry Sangiovese, we found the sweet spiciness and massive cherries on the nose and palate to be overwhelming. Simply stated, we were ploughed over by the lack of balance. Given the price and all the supposed health benefits associated with red wine, we would consider as a lower level cocktail party wine deserving our attention for perhaps a glass. We had big hopes...sadly, they were dashed. Perhaps too young for us to sip now? (1586 views)
 Tasted by VinoServant on 10/14/2015 & rated 87 points: Good, but I thought it would be better. I actually preferred Ferrero's 2013 Rosso di Montalcino. I thought this wine was a little thin and didn't have enough fruit. Important to note, that I drank it on a very warm night. I will have to give it another try b/c I know this producer makes a great rosso. (1233 views)

Sangiovese

SANGIOVESE: (Pronounced "sahn-joh-vhe-se").
Sangiovese - Italy's claim to fame, the pride of Tuscany. Traditionally made, the wines are full of cherry fruit, earth, and cedar. It produces Chianti (Classico), Rosso di Montalcino, Brunello di Montalcino, Rosso di Montepulciano, Montefalco Rosso, and many others. Sangiovese is also the backbone in many of the acclaimed, modern-styled "Super-Tuscans", where it is blended with Bordeaux varietals (Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc) and typically aged in French oak barrels, resulting a wine primed for the international market in the style of a typical California cabernet: oaky, high-alcohol, and a ripe, jammy, fruit-forward profile.[16]

Semi-classic grape grown in the Tuscany region of Italy. Used to produce the Chianti and other Tuscan red wines. Has many clonal versions, two of which seem to predominate. The Sangiovese Grosso clone Brunello variety is used for the dark red, traditionally powerful and slow-maturing "Brunello di Montalcino" wine. The other is the Sangiovese Piccolo, also known under the historical synonym name Sangioveto, used for standard Chianti Classico DOC wines. Old vine derived wine is often used in the better versions, needing several years ageing to reach peak. A third clone, Morellino, is used in a popular wine blend with the same name found in the southern part of the province. Recent efforts in California with clones of this variety are very promising, producing medium-bodied reds with rich cherry or plumlike flavors and aromas. Among the available clonal versions are R6 and R7, derived from the Montalcino region of Italy, having average productivity/ripening and producing small berries on medium size clusters. R10 and R24 are well-recommended. R23, listed as deriving from the Emilia-Romagna region, has good vigor with medium-small clusters with earlier ripening. R102 derives from the Montepulciano region and reported to have average vigor with moderate productivity that results in higher sugar levels and good acidity from medium-small berries on medium-small clusters. Has synonym name of Nielluccio where grown in Corsica.
