Tasting notes
The 2013 Rosso di Montalcino is vividly fresh and fruit-focused, with a lifted blend of bright strawberry, cedar dust, clove and citrus zest. This is pure class and is aging incredibly well, with silken textures and ripe red and blue fruits excited by tantalizing acidity. The 2013 has a sense of boundless energy. It’s still youthfully tense yet mouthwatering, leaving hints of licorice and a salty flourish that slowly fades. This is a rockstar Rosso di Montalcino. Wow.

Showing great depth and a clean, tonic style, the 2013 Rosso di Montalcino is streamlined and tight with bright berry fruit that emerges high and tall from the bouquet. The wine's intensity is very evident especially when tasted next to Pian dell'Orino's IGT Sangiovese. The quality of fruit is fresh and pronounced and like all of the wines from this estate, this expression is characterized by an extremely polished and silky approach. It reaches seamless integration.
Pian dell'Orino takes Rosso di Montalcino to another level with their sublime 2013. Bright, focused and wonderfully articulated, the Rosso literally bristles with energy. Sweet red cherry, raspberry, rose petals and blood orange are all beautifully delineated in the glass. What a striking, gorgeous wine this is.
