The 2023 Rosso di Montalcino from Poggio Antico captures a vintage of contrasts: spring rains gave way to summer heat, all tempered by steady winds across their hillside vineyards. Hand-harvested in early October, the fruit underwent a gentle eight-day fermentation followed by twelve months split between stainless steel and large French oak. This divided élevage preserves the wine's natural vibrancy while adding just enough structure to ground it. Freshly bottled this past November, it's the daily voice of the territory: immediate, expressive, and unmistakably rooted in place.
