Tasting notes
Showing a distinctive bouquet with cherry, dried raspberry, watermelon and sweet cucumber, this wine was released in March 2024. The Pian dell'Orino 2020 Rosso di Montalcino (with just 5,683 bottles produced) is an open-knit expression with a friendly and accessible side. It delivers balanced freshness against a firm structural backbone, and both contribute to the wine's general brightness and richness.

A deeper jeweled ruby with a magenta tinge, the 2020 Rosso Di Montalcino is fresh with ripe, pure aromas of anise, black raspberries, and wet stones. This vintage may offer more perfume, but I love how these wines just take on so much purity. Medium-bodied, with ripe tannins and a long finish, this wine has a bit more tension at this stage and is going to benefit from another year in bottle. Drink 2025-2035. 5700 bottles produced.
Crushed rocks, wild strawberries and dusty dried flowers form a darkly alluring bouquet as the 2020 Rosso di Montalcino opens in the glass. This is elegant and feminine in style, with pillowy soft textures and ripe red fruits as chalky tannins form toward the close. The 2020 tapers off grippy, yet with a bump of residual acids. Orange notes maintain a lovely freshness. The Rosso of Pian dell'Orino continues to be one of the top performers year after year.
