Rosso di Montalcino 2021...
Campo ai Sassi 2021<br />Rosso di Montalcino DOC<br />Campo ai Sassi Rosso di Montalcino presents the typical characteristics of Sangiovese grown in this area, in a youthfully disengaged version. The deep soils on which<br />these vineyards are cultivated contribute to perfumed and elegant wines with a light and delicate tannic texture.<br /><br />Climatic trend<br />The 2021 season will be remembered as a dynamic vintage. After a rainy and mild winter, which had led to a slight advance in budding, temperatures dropped sharply at the<br />beginning of April, slightly slowing the growth of the buds. From May onwards, temperatures began to rise again, leading to a summer that will be remembered for both the<br />beautiful day-night temperature range and the long period of intense heat. The grapes presented themselves at harvest in a perfect state of health, thanks to the mild<br />temperatures and low humidity.<br /><br />Technical notes<br />Varietal: Sangiovese<br />Alcoholic grade: 13.5%.<br />Maturation: in oak barrels<br />Vinification and maturation<br />Once harvested, the Sangiovese grapes were fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. During this phase, cap breaking was of fundamental importance,<br />allowing perfect extraction of the polyphenolic substances. Subsequently, the wine spent a period of maturation in the cellar, part of it in wood. Further time in bottle<br />completed its qualitative course before release for consumption.<br /><br />Tasting notes<br />Campo ai sassi 2021 has a wonderful ruby red colour. The bouquet is mainly characterised by fruity<br />fruity and floral notes. Among the fruity notes stand out the currant and morello cherry, among the floral ones certainly the violet. In the mouth it is<br />fresh, soft and persuasive. The tannin is soft. The persistence is pleasantly long.<br />
