Giuseppe Gorelli, Sangiovese, Rosso di Montalcino, Tuscany, Italy 2020

Giuseppe Gorelli's Rosso di Montalcino is full of floral intensity with blood orange and smoky woodland notes, and an elegant crushed-berry and sour-cherry palate, with firm tannins and well-integrated acidity lending a very pleasant persistence.

Velvety and dense, its savory orange focus is followed by great refinement on the finish with touches of licorice. Giuseppe’s is undeniably an overachieving Rosso di Montalcino — buy one to drink and one to store for a few more years.
