Fruity aromas of ripe berries with balsamic notes on the nose predict an alternation between sweetness and acidity in the mouth. Its sweet-acid components evoke raspberry and ripe blackberry. Spicy finish recalls star anise and pink pepper. Powdery tannins. Excellent with typical Tuscan dishes such as T-bone steak and ragout sauce. Suitable, when young, with fish soup featuring scorpion fish and monkfish.

In the bottle with the cream-colored label, the 2022 Rosso di Montalcino Rossofonte reveals ripe fruit from a hot vintage, but you also get thorny or brambly aromas that recall forest floor or grilled rosemary. There is a sweet side to the mouthfeel, and the fruit is one-dimensional, ending with a powerful 15% alcohol. Production is 8,600 bottles.
