May 20, 2023 - Sangiovese study, Volume II (Chicago, IL): Served blind (with the producer known). Clearly lighter in palate presence than the Brunellos, so the Rosso was an immediate guess. Distinctly spicy, more so than any of the other wines in this flight. Lifted red fruit with a touch of reduction. Relatively large-scaled tannins had me think that this was from a relatively ripe vintage (right on that front) but I guessed that this was younger.

April 19, 2018 - Fully integrated and in peak drinking period, this well-crafted Rosso is light bodied and comes off on the fruitier side of Montalcino, but oh, that fruit screams "Brunello!" As with my first bottle a year ago, it opens up quickly, but this time the unmistakable hallmarks of its pedigree are quite evident on the finish. Perhaps one of maybe three Rossos I'd buy again.

May 28, 2017 - This needed some time to open up and blow off a slightly prickly feeling. Perhaps a little trapped gas. Lighter bodied and red fruited. An elegant Rosso that is very food friendly. Ann preferred this to the older Caparzo. Solid wine.

September 28, 2016 - Gorgeous! Not a blockbuster--delicate fruit, elegant delivery. Well worth the cellar time. And very much worth the price.
