“Lo Sbrancato” Rosato di Toscana IGT 2022
Pure Sangiovese Rosato, fine floral nuances, strawberry and violet notes on the nose. Fresh on the palate, well-structured and with clear, red berry flavours through to the finish. SUPERIORE.DE
"The nose starts soft and floral, with aromas of bubblegum and budding roses, then turns savory and salty, but maintains its delicacy, like a finely chopped steak tartare. The palate sees a rounder, fuller texture emerge, but that balance between sanguinity and candy continues." Wine Enthusiast
"Deep raspberry-coloured rosé with aromas of cherries, dried strawberries and watermelon, with some lemon zest. It is rich and fruity with a medium body and a creamy finish." James Suckling

“Spezieri” Rosso Toscana IGT 2021 (BIO)
Ruby red colour, fresh nose of red fruits and spices. Pleasant flavour: fruity, balanced in tannin and acidity, very lively and crisp. SUPERIORE.DE
"Bright ruby red colour. Still somewhat restrained on the nose, of ripe cherry, rosehip and cloves. Opens on the palate with clear fruit and animating acidity, fine, young tannins." Falstaff
"This tightly wound red's chewy tannins maintain a stranglehold on the wild strawberry and cherry fruit. Accents of earth and tobacco add detail, yet the finish feels pinched for now." Wine Spectator
"The nose balances savory, slightly astringent aromas of coffee, soil, pepper and balsamic with sweeter notes of cherries and blackberries. That berry element glows on the palate, but an enduring peppery earthiness preserves the balance. Firm tannins usher the acid into a sophisticated, salty finish." Wine Enthusiast

“Talenti” Rosso Toscana IGT 2023
Blend of Sangiovese (approx. 80%) and Petit Verdot from the south-west slope in small quantities < 5,000 bottles. The soil has a brown colour, a clayey-loamy texture, limestone slabs and a rounded skeleton. Only the Sangiovese matures for a few months in French oak, after which it is blended and matured in the bottle. Ruby red in colour with violet reflections. Intense aroma with characteristic notes of ripe fruit such as plum, blackberry and cherry. The flavour is soft and full, with a good structure and sweet, well-balanced tannins. SUPERIORE.DE

“Rubio” Rosso Toscana IGT 2021 (BIO)
Brilliant ruby red colour. Intense bouquet of small red berries, cherries and a violet-spice component. Warm and full flavours of forest fruits and cherries on the palate, flanked by a solid tannin structure. The finish is soft and long, medium-bodied and very elegant. SUPERIORE.DE
"Light ruby red with violet reflections. Lots of violets and cherries on the nose, mineral notes. Juicy, refreshing on the palate, animating acidity structure, delicate tannins, subtly salty on the finish." Falstaff
"The nose is smoky, sanguine, peppery and earthy, but then opens up with aromas of blood orange, blackberry and black cherry. More pepper and earth with red plum on the palate preserve the overall sanguine feel, while the bitterness of an enduring blood orange note bites back against taut tannins and bright acid." Wine Enthusiast
"Aromas of redcurrants and cherries with spiced orange peel, red liquorice and cocoa. Medium to full-bodied, compact and concentrated with depth and a velvety texture. Well integrated and long-lasting." James Suckling

“La Querciolina” Rosso Montecucco DOC 2020
The Montecucco appellation near the Tuscan coast enjoys plenty of warmth and sun to produce wines with a full texture. On the nose, ripe cherries and blackcurrants, with smoke and tar as the wine progresses. Very juicy on the palate, with nice energy and a very acceptable length. A wonderful companion to heartier cuisine. SUPERIORE.DE

“Non Confunditur” Rosso Toscana IGT 2021
Rosso Non Confunditur from Argiano is made from Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Sangiovese. The wine opens with a dark ruby red colour and aromas of wild berries, flowers and red berries. On the palate, it fortunately does not show the cloying heaviness or dense extraction found in many other protagonists of the Super Tuscan category. In fact, NC is accessible and fresh, rounded off with a good level of crisp acidity and a well-proportioned body. SUPERIORE.DE
"Dark ruby red with violet shimmer. Compact nose, ripe plum, coffee and dark chocolate. Powerful and juicy on the palate, builds up a lot of pressure, refreshing acidity and ripe tannins, medium-long final, slightly brittle at the end." Falstaff
"Taut and straightforward in profile, this red offers blackcurrants, black cherries, vanilla and peppery spices. It tightens up on the finish, where the chalky tannins linger." Wine Spectator
"The nose is simultaneously earthy and sweet, with notes of cherries, chocolate, tree bark and underbrush. That cherry-chocolate sweetness takes center stage on the palate, before tannins clear through them to resuscitate the earth tones." Wine Enthusiast

“San Biagio” Rosso Toscano IGT 2021
The sophisticated Rosso San Biagio combines sour cherry, peppery herbs, leather and dark earth tones to create a tasty and wonderfully inviting entry. The textures are soft, but the fruit is ripe and fleshy, with notes of sour citrus and juicy acids that maintain freshness while keeping the energy high. This wine is dangerously delicious and finishes long with hints of blackberry and spice. SUPERIORE.DE
"Sparkling ruby-violet with a slightly brightening rim. Very clear and intense nose with lots of rich blackberry fruit and dark currants, some bay leaves. Round and polished on the palate, fruit well brought out on the attack, then shows some harsh tannin, slightly drying." Falstaff

Rosso di Montalcino DOC 2021 (BIO)
Col d'Orcia's Rosso di Montalcino is a fabulous wine every year. Classic aromas of wild berries, camphor and ploughed earth as well as a hint of blue flowers. Full-bodied and savoury on the palate with flavours of marasca cherry, plum and liquorice and taut, fine-grained tannins flanking the finish. SUPERIORE.DE
"Intense ruby red colour. Black bread, violets, some blueberry and white pepper on the nose. Opens fruit-emphasised on the palate on dark berries, delicate creaminess, enveloped by medium-bodied, tightly meshed tannins, beautiful length, still delicately bitter on the finish." Falstaff
"The 2021 Rosso di Montalcino wafts up with a rich blend of crushed cherries, sage and dusty earth. It opens with a lovely inner sweetness and plush red berry fruits, soothing the palate through a core of vibrant acidity as violet inner florals form toward the close. This finishes with admirable length and unexpected structure, leaving a spicy tinge and sweet herbal flourish. It's a total pleasure to taste." Vinous

Rosso di Montalcino DOC 2021 (BIO)
Poggio Landis Rosso di Montalcino is a fruit-driven, enjoyable red wine that offers all the prerequisites for great food pairing. It offers juicy freshness, spicy floral scents with a hint of sage, then a balanced, invigorating acidity and mild tannins on the palate. A delicious and energetic red with an excellent value for the noble region. SUPERIORE.DE
"A blend of savory herbs, leather and black cherries wafts up from the 2021 Rosso di Montalcino. It’s silky in texture, yet with a pronounced acidity that creates a reverberation of tension, as tart red fruits and mineral tones add further contrasts. The 2021 leaves a staining of primary concentration, along with a coating of fine tannins, while finishing with admirable length. Give this zesty Rosso at least a year in the cellar to even out a bit and blossom aromatically, as it has the balance to evolve very nicely." Vinous

Rosso di Montalcino DOC 2021
Intense, dense ruby red colour. The nose is caressed by fruity notes reminiscent of berries, finishing with coffee flavours, dark chocolate and roasted wood. On the palate, it is perfectly balanced with a wonderfully balanced texture and a convincing final. A fresh and lively Rosso - harmonious and round. SUPERIORE.DE
"The 2021 Rosso di Montalcino is impossible to ignore, wafting up with a mentholated freshness that gives way to hauntingly dark florals and crushed blackberries. It's soothingly round and supple with ripe red fruits and cooling acidity as a flourish of sweet spice emerges toward the close. It leaves a licorice and a bitter balsamic tinge while maintaining a lovely freshness. Fanti did a wonderful job with the dry warmth of the vintage. I'm looking forward to tasting this Brunello in a few years." Vinous
"Notes of ripe cherries, red plums and chocolate with sweet orange peel and spices. Medium body. Firm and chalky with grainy tannins and fresh red berry character. Dry and linear finish." James Suckling

Rosso di Montalcino DOC 2021
Rich ruby red colour, precise, clear fruit on the nose with a very light mineral note. Pleasant, beautifully smooth flavour, round and of good substance. A Rosso di Montalcino with a lot of charm. SUPERIORE.DE
"The 2021 Il Poggione Rosso di Montalcino offers medium weight fruit with dark cherry, wild plum and savoury spice. This is an excellent vintage with moderate summer temperatures and a long growing season, which is very favourable to Sangiovese, a grape that needs its time to mature and develop complexity. This Rosso also shows a particularly spicy character with nutmeg and cinnamon, which seems to come from both the grape skins and the 12 months in oak barrels." Wine Advocate
"A juicy red, with leather and underbrush accents framing smoky cherry, plum and mineral flavors. Well-structured and long, with a solid grip of tannins on the lingering aftertaste. Offers fine intensity." Wine Spectator
"A beautifully spicy Rosso di Montalcino with cloves, dried flowers, sour cherries and orange peel on the nose. Creamy and medium to full-bodied, with chalky tannins and a ripe, chocolaty finish." James Suckling
"The 2021 Rosso di Montalcino immediately catches the eye, with a classic, dusty mix of dried cherries, worn leather and earthy tones, complicated by aromas of roasted meat. It is polished. A crisp minerality emphasises the pure red fruits, which are accompanied by a lively acidity. This leaves you wanting more, as the orange and cranberry flavours linger in the mouth for a long time. The 2021 is a fantastic, dynamic Rosso that makes me curious to see what the Brunello of the vintage will bring." Vinous

Rosso di Montalcino DOC 2020
Bright ruby red. Very lively nose of bright berries and blackcurrant with sweet, spicy components. Crisp yet balanced acidity on the palate with a racy mix of fresh fruit and sweet extract spice. A cool but very authentic representative of its kind, it never pretends to be more than it is, but brings enough to be one of the most finessed Rossi of the vintage. It is de facto a very successful wine of a pleasing purity with a clear commitment to the appellation. SUPERIORE.DE
"Ruby red. In the nose cherry, black currant, fresh cherry, with spicy aftertaste. On the palate with juicy tannin, shows considerable structure for a Rosso, elegant and persistent final." Falstaff
"The 2020 Rosso di Montalcino is wildly attractive, with sweet violet florals, sugar dusted blackberries and smoke forming its bouquet. It washes across the palate with grace, soft-textured and round, while leaving a staining of wild berries under an air of blue and purple floral perfumes. Gently tannic, yet more of an accent than an obstacle, the 2020 finishes with medium length, leaving hints of licorice to slowly fade." Vinous

Firm and expressive on the palate; multi-layered flavours of ripe wild berries, spices and a delicate almond note are flanked by velvety tannins. Ciampoleto has impressive depth and structure for a Rosso, and the respectable finish leaves a soft cherry note with traces of liquorice and a salty vein. SUPERIORE.DE

“Per Caterina” Colorino Toscana IGT 2018
The new single varietal Colorino Per Caterina opens with a slightly darker colour and more garnet concentration than the Ciliegiolo and Sangiovese produced at Piancornello. This autochthonous grape variety usually adds colour to traditional red wine blends and on its own the grape offers a nice fibre and density, flanked by powerful primary aromas and some black pepper. A pure and rather purist wine with a fresh, bright acidity - for us an ideal companion to grilled meat. SUPERIORE.DE

Rosso di Montalcino DOC 2021 (BIO)
True to the more classic style of Fornacina's red wines, the Rosso also shows an earthy and ripe nose with dark fruits, plums and dried blackberries. The wine offers plenty of tradition thanks to its linear and robust fruit profile. Dark spices, liquorice, tar and some cedar smoke add elegance and complexity to this pretty Rosso. Great value!

The Brunello di Montalcino is one of the most legendary success stories in viticulture in Italy. If not worldwide. Although a wine known as Brunello appears in old documents as early as the 14th century, it was born in 1888, when Clemente Santi first described a wine from his own Sangiovese clones, selected for years, as Brunello on the estate of his family Biondi-Santi, Il Greppo. He allowed the wine to mature for several years in large Slavonian oak barrels. Since until 1945 only four vintages were produced (1888, 1891, 1925 and 1945), the wine was in conversation because of its quality and became known beyond the borders. Today one would probably say cult wine to it. Because it was so rare, but at the same time of legendary quality, it also fetched an incredibly high price - for Italian wine until then. For a long time, Biondi-Santi was practically the only manufacturer, at least until the 1970s it was still the largest. Biondi-Santi is still one of the showpiece wineries today. And one of the most expensive.
In 1966 Brunello di Montalcino became DOC, in 1980 the first DOCG in Italy, both simultaneously with the "little brother" Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. There were just 63,583 bottles of Brunello di Montalcino from the 1980 vintage and today there are over 10 million bottles. The then 700 hectares of cultivated land became 24,000 hectares, but only 3,500 for Brunello. The number of producers increased tenfold, among them many investors, also from abroad, who already leaf out half a million euros for one hectare that allows Brunello cultivation.
Brunello di Montalcino is subject to strict production guidelines that are monitored by the Consorzio del Vino Brunello di Montalcino. Each bottle carries a band with a number with which the wine can be traced back to the producer. All producers are represented in the Consorzio. By the way, this is the only Consorzio in Italy where this is the case. The yield is regulated, as are the grape varieties used for wines from Montalcino - Brunello, Rosso, Sant'Antimo and Moscadello di Montalcino - may be used.
For Brunello di Montalcino this is 100% Sangiovese. Even today, the majority of clones can be traced back to the selection of Biondi-Santi. In recent years, clone selection has also been carried out at Castello Banfi under scientific direction. Here the Sangiovese grape is also simply called Brunello grape. Experts also call it Sangiovese Grosso because it is a clone with slightly larger berries than in Chianti, for example.
Rosso di Montalcino also requires 100% Sangiovese, although the yield may be slightly higher and the wine marketed earlier. At Rosso Sant'Antimo other grape varieties are also allowed, but the main variety must always dominate at least 70%. Other red wines, mostly cuvées, are labelled as Rosso Toscana IGT.
Montalcino is a small mountain town about 40 kilometers south of Siena. The vineyards are located in the surrounding hills at altitudes between 120 and 650m above sea level. The climate here is hot and dry, but is tempered by the altitude and the steady winds. The Sangiovese matures particularly well here. The soils are stony and barren throughout, the vines must have deep roots, which promotes minerality.
Brunello may not be put on sale until after 1 January of the fifth year following the harvest. Before that, at least two years in the barrel (usually four) and subsequent bottle storage are required. In the case of Riserva, the ripening period is extended by one year. Names such as Altesino, Biondi Santi - Il Greppo, Casanova di Neri, Castello Banfi, Ciacci Piccolomini, Donna Olga, Il Poggione, Lisini, Mastrojanni, Poggio Antico, Siro Pacenti, Tenuta Fanti, Uccelleria or Valdicava have made the wine-growing region great. International awards are given year after year, the success: most of the top wines are exported and achieved considerable prizes. SUPERIORE.DE
