Tasting 12 - Rosso di Montalcino




  • Name: Casanova di Neri, Rosso di Montalcino
  • Variety: Sangiovese
  • Region: Tuscany
  • Country: Italy
  • Year: 2013
  • Price ? Served at a friend's house.
  • Review (klwines.com): Dried cherry, fruitcake, and fennel come out on the nose of this Rosso di Montalcino. A hint of mint accents the juicy cherry notes on the palate, which shows good depth of flavor. There’s lots of youthful vitality here yet, though the tannins are fine enough to make this approachable now. 
  • Your review: Medium body, kind of acid in a not pleasant way. Fruity aromas not too strong.
  • Paired with a plate of liguine and clam sauce.
