Uccelliera Rosso di Montalcino (Red) 2021 - OutstandingTasted by Elizabeth Gabay MW & Ben Bernheim
Ruby red. Smoky sandalwood and cedar. Vibrant acidity, juicy cranberry and redcurrants. Floral, perfumed, orchard fruit. High alcohol but barely evident. Beautiful oak. Silky tannins. Joyous, serious, vibrant. This may be a Rosso but don't expect entry-level.
