Poderi Sanguineto I e II Rosso di Montepulciano Sangiovese 2018

$24.99

We are big fans of what Dora Forsoni is doing at Poderi Sanguineto in the town of Monteulciano. Her Vino Nobile di Montepulcianoandnbsp;is one of the last traditional wines made in the village and the Rosso is cut from the same cloth.andnbsp; In fact, all her wines start out life as Vino Nobile coming from a single plot of vines plantedandnbsp;not only to Sangiovese,andnbsp;but also includingandnbsp;20-30% Mammolo and Canaiolo.andnbsp; As the wines age Dora decides which casks to declassify as Rosso di Montepulciano bottling themandnbsp;one year before the Vino Nobile.andnbsp; The Rosso captures the same compelling aromatics of the Vino Nobile but on a lighter frame with less pronounced tannins. Expect bright red fruit, subtle floral notes, and sweet spices cut by bright acidity.andnbsp;

A pretty yet understated mix of wet stone, dusty violets, lavender and black currants rises up from the 2018 Rosso di Montepulciano. This is soft-textured and fleshy in feel, yet energized by bright acids and a sour citrus twang that enlivens its tart red berry fruits. It tapers off incredibly fresh and mouthwatering with stoney minerals, roses and vanilla-tinged sweet spice. To be frank, I’ve seen some very poor reviews from this wine in certain social circles, yet from this experience, I can’t validate them. That said, there may be some bottle variation at play.
