PnP. Drank with leftovers: chicken stew, tagliatelle with pesto. Color is ruby red. Did not check for fade at the edge. What we expect from a Rosso di Montalcino. Red fruit, bright acid, some tannin, with a somewhat mouthwatering finish. Simple and delicious. We both deemed the bottle “rather small”.

Very good wine, drink now or suitable for 1-2 years of age. Color is garnet and like most Rosso both nose and palate intensity are medium at best. Acid is Medium+. In general lots of red fruit - Cherry, cranberry and even some herbs and vanilla on the finish. Finish is medium plus. Not complex but fairly well balanced. For $16 a very good wine and just what you’d expect from a Rosso.

Pretty light and disappointing for the heralded vintage of the century ending on a metallic bitter finish. Drink now.

Very enjoyable and super easy drinking as previous notes mentioned. Picked this up for $14 and it’s a great value. Great every day Italian Red!

From Magnum. Surprisingly gentle and almost too easy to drink. Delicious but a little simple too. Better on day 2.
