  • 2018 Bellaria Rosso di Montalcino Assunto - Italy, Tuscany, Montalcino, Rosso di Montalcino (4/16/2021)
    Pretty much exactly what I want from a RdM. It’s easy drinking, shows tart cherry fruit, and has some decent structure. It gained depth over the 2+ hours I spent with it. Left 1/3 of the bottle to see how it evolves. The times have made these sorts of wines a little more expensive than they should be, but it’s an across the board problem. Still, it’s a nice way to wind down on a Friday evening, and given the fruit/structure balance it has a number of good years ahead of it.
