If the Rosso-di-Montalcino appellation reminds us of the similar-in-sound and illustrious Brunello, also of Montalcino, it is however important to set apart its origin. Younger vines and a shorter aging can differentiate them, but also opens the door to quicker enjoyment, less wood and less expensive cuvees, which still offer a very distinct signature. This one is mouth-filling and refined, chock-full of aromas that evoke cherry, raspberry, spices and cigar box, along with a delicate aniseed touch.

Carrefour de la Pointe

(Automatically translated) A rosso di Montalcino that plays in the court of Brunello. Vines of 11 to 17 years, ageing of 9 to 12 months but which puts all its freshness into perspective. Focused on cherry, sweet spices and black fruits. This wine can be drunk now or kept for another ten years.

(Automatically translated) This wine lends itself perfectly to an accompaniment to grilled meats, pasta dishes with tomato sauce or aged cheeses. On the nose, it reveals a rich aromatic bouquet, with notes of ripe cherry, plum, and a touch of sweet spices. A Brunello at a low price!
