rustic and powerful finish

Good crunchy acidity

accented by licorice

A cooling inner-mouth hint of mint and a faint aura of white raisin add further contrast and allure

and the tannins are fine

Cerbaiona, Rosso Montalcino other_regions rustic and powerful finishI've been having a hard time keeping up with samples from Cerbaiona. The management prefers to release the wines a bit later and shies away from the classic en primeur or critics' tasting events.

It's a true pleasure to return to a simple, honest, fresh and pretty wine such as the 2015 Rosso di Montalcino. It offers enormous purity and finesse,
