Out of stock

Dark berry, rich and with a powerful body, but combed, made city-fair, honest and with a good heart, the Tuscan comes along far from rugged. Dried fruit aromas of figs, dates and plums cavort, almost rum-pot-like.

Tasting note from Nov 27, 2019, copyright Peter Mueller and Vinaturel:

Colour

Dark purple in colour with a violet rim and opaque core, the wine shows clearly and brilliantly in the glass.

Nose

The first nose suggests warmth and ripe grapes, but for all its self-assured power, it is at the same time sedate and unagitated. There are dried fruit aromas of figs, dates and plums, which almost have something rum-pot-like. Beside the spice of roasted peanuts and chestnuts, as well as black truffle, the pleasant smell of real weakly deoiled cocoa is found. This in harmony with each other suggests strength, which, however, draws a very balanced picture.

Palate

Das satte Tannin des 2016 Rosso di Montalcino von Pian dell’ Orino hat Kraft und dennoch eine angenehme Weichheit, mit der sich der Wein eng mit Fruchtschmelz umschlingt. Dunkelbeerig, satt  und von kraftvollem Körper, aber gekämmt, stadtfein gemacht, ehrlich und mit gutem Herzen kommt der Toskaner fernab von schroff daher. Die reifen, schier getrockneten, Fruchtnoten duplizieren sich am Gaumen und durch sein stoffiges Gerüst hat der Wein eine anhaltende Länge.
