The wine
Montosoli is one of Montalcino's most revered hillsides, a north-facing amphitheatre that gives Sangiovese exceptional perfume and length. Valdicava's bottling from this single cru ranks among Brunello's elite. The 2018 is fragrant and finely structured, a wine that trades sheer weight for grace and aromatic detail.
Bright garnet, it lifts on sour cherry, wild strawberry, dried rose and orange zest over sweet tobacco and forest floor. The palate is elegant and savoury, red fruit carried by firm yet fine-grained tannin and an iron-edged minerality. Classic Sangiovese acidity keeps it bright and lifted. The finish is long, perfumed and earthy, with dried herb at the close.
Why we chose it
“Montalcino's great amphitheatre, in a fragrant key. Grace over brute force.”
