Col d'Orcia Rosso di Montalcino "Banditella" 2019 DOC (WA 90)

Wine Advocate 90 points. Made with certified organic fruit, the Col d'Orcia 2019 Rosso di Montalcino Banditella is another protagonist in a storyline that sees this entry-level category of wine emerge with increased importance within this storied Tuscan appellation. We will surely be seeing even more excellent Rosso in the future. This expression offers nice concentration with rich flavors of blackberry, plum and sweet earth. ML Feb 2022. "The baby Brunello". Organic. WINERY NOTE: A modern interpretation of a classic from Montalcino: a special selection from a great Sangiovese vineyard is vinified and refined with advanced methods and technologies. A wine that combines the great structure and longevity of the Brunello with the freshness and readiness of the Rosso di Montalcino. Rich, massive, with intense, inviting fruit, elegantly supported by noble tannins and by the spices deriving from the oak creating an impact both impressive, harmonic and pleasant. Modern and innovative, though conserving a great respect for its terroir.
