2011 Rosso di Montalcino

The 2011 Rosso di Montalcino is a fascinating wine with bright and energetic fruit flavors that rise to the top of the bouquet with balanced intensity. The fruit nuances are particularly enhanced in this warm vintage. The wine drinks beautifully right now with smooth tannins, mild persistence and lasting cherry flavors. I could foresee a very successful pairing with roasted chicken or pasta al forno. Ultimately, the message here is one of simplicity, elegance and grace. This Rosso di Montalcino does a great job of keeping your palate refreshed. Mar 2016, www.robertparker.com
