The 2023 Rosso di Montepulciano mixes savory and sweet with a burst of black raspberries, ground clove and sage complicated by hints of ashen stone. This is silken and round, surprisingly deep and complex. It splashes across the palate with ripe red and blue fruit accents as a tinge of sour citrus adds contrast toward the close. This tapers off structured and long, leaving a classically dry sensation and nuances of violet pastille that fade slowly. While already a pleasure to taste, the 2023 also possesses the balance for medium-term cellaring. 91 points. Vinous.
