Tasting notes

A wine that fully expresses the most Mediterranean side of Montalcino. It tells the story of its place of origin, the hamlet of Castelnuovo dellโ€™Abate, whose clay soils give the wine depth and intrigue. Rich in fresh aromas that blend beautifully with the complexity of the palate. Creamy tannins lend vitality and longevity. A challenging vintage, already showing great energy and character.
