Tommaso Cortonesi owner & winemaker of La Mannella winery in Montalcino, and our friend Giuseppe Luisi from Quintessential Wines, are joining us for a tasting and bottle signing event! Details below: 2013 Rosso di Montalcino 
With a core of pure cherry highlights, this intense red has accents of flowers, chocolate and tobacco. The finish echoes sweet fruit, tobacco and spice notes, and best enjoyed the first few years after bottling. 2010 “I Poggiarelli” Brunello di Montalcino 
Vibrant and well-built, this wine has power to match the cherry, leather, mineral and earth aromas and flavors. As it is still very young, there are some tight tannins on the long and spicy finish that will mellow with a few years’ aging. 2010 Brunello di Montalcino 
A luscious dark crimson Brunello with bountiful and intense aromas of red fruit, blackberry, spice, leather and cedar wood that lingers. The wine is clean, chiseled and sharp, while simultaneously bold and generous. There is a touch of bitter almond, followed by softer tones of red berry and spice on the palate, with a long, lingering finish. * * * |
