The 2022 Rosso di Montalcino entices with a whiff of mint leaf and sage before giving way to crushed black cherries, clove and white smoke. This shows the ripeness of the vintage in a beautifully balanced package, with mineral-laced red and blue fruits that swirl across textures of pure silk. It finishes incredibly long, repeating its mineral strength. Sweet tannins linger through the violet-tinged finale. The 2022 is an understated beauty.

A ripe red color, the 2022 Rosso Di Montalcino is a potent little Rosso on the nose, with notes of wild cherries, anise, and pine needles. Medium-bodied, with good structure, it's showing the warmth of the vintage, with modest acidity. but it retains good freshness in spite of that. It's a very charming wine to enjoy over the next 2-3 years.

Rich and packed with cherry, plum, earth and iron flavors. Shows muscle and dense, dusty tannins for support. Nicely balanced. Drink now through 2032. 5,000 cases made, 2,000 cases imported.

The Uccelliera 2022 Rosso di Montalcino shows a dark ruby color with tart cherry highlights. You get bitter almond and, generally speaking, the wine excels at delivering bright primary intensity. It would pair perfectly with a pizza such as a simple Margherita with buffalo mozzarella. There is mild tannic intensity, and the wine is nicely put together.
