This Rosso di Montalcino is deeply alluring with its sexy bouquet of spiced orange peels, sour cherry, sweet violets and perfectly contrasting nuances of worn leather. It’s silky in texture yet spry, with a mix of tart wild berries and savory herbal tones all accelerated by juicy acidity. While lightly tannic through the finish, it remains energetic and fresh with a note of citrus-tinged blackberry that resonates.~ Eric Guido, Vinous
Sandwiched between the great Brunello estates of Talenti and Il Poggione, Collemattoni crafts beautiful, traditional Brunellos and Rossos near the village of Sant'Angelo in Colle. The estate grows its grapes in some of the appellation's highest elevations that average 1,200 feet, and this altitude gives the organically tended grapes fantastic sunlight and warmth throughout the day as well as cooling at night, offering the ideal environment for ripe Sangiovese grapes. Collemattoni has been making wine since 1982, but the estate's wines suggest a winery that has been producing for a lot longer. Under the guidance of second-generation owner-winemaker Marcello Bucci, the estate crafts traditional, beautifully wrought Sangiovese Grosso bottlings that capture their southern Montalcino terroir with grace and power.
