COL D’ORCIA 2017 BRUNELLO DI MONTALCINO
$54.99 – $552.00Tuscany Italy
Wine Advocate 93 Rating
Made with certified organic fruit the Col d’Orcia 2017 Brunello di Montalcino definitely shows some of the heat of the vintage and I think this impression is reinforced by the location of this property on the southern side of the appellation where temperatures are normally a few degrees higher on average. The winemaking team at this historic estate is not deterred by hot vintages and their winemaking protocol captures the freshness and brightness of Sangiovese nonetheless. In fact the alcohol content here measured 14.5% which is almost contained compared to some other wines in this report from cooler subzones. A learned comfort with organic farming is key to this wine’s detailed aromas of black cherry crushed rose and Mediterranean herb.

Col d’Orcia 2020 Rosso di Montalcino
$24.99 – $252.00Tuscany Italy
Antonio Galloni Vinous 91 Rating
The 2020 Rosso di Montalcino wafts up with a classic mix of earth tones, Tuscan dust and bright strawberries. It’s silky yet cool-toned in feel with inner violet and lavender tones over a core of tart wild berry fruit. The 2020 leaves a coating of youthfully grippy tannins, yet it keeps the mouth watering as sweet minty herbs slowly fade. This is a fun and fruit-focused Rosso that maintains wonderful balance, and I love how savory, almost salty it is at times.

A wine of depth and presence, this Pinot slowly unfolds with an elegant intensity that highlights blueberry and raspberry flavors, laced by crushed stone and savory tarragon as this builds toward medium-grained tannins.

Camphor, blue flower, dark-skinned berry and French oak aromas come to the forefront on this full-bodied red. A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot, the savory, elegantly structured palate features ripe blackberry, cassis, mocha and ground pepper. Firm, refined tannins and fresh acidity provide support and balance.

Collefrisio ‘Sotto Sopra’ Wine & Sour Cherries
$26.99Abruzzo Italy
Enjoyabilityfactor 91 Rating
Wine with sour cherry is a traditional product of the Abruzzo region, called Ratafia. There are different versions, including fortified ones. This one is made exclusively with Montepulciano d'Abruzzo with some sour cherry syrup. Intense notes of red fruits and cocoa. Elegant, soft and fresh. Served chilled. The preparation and use of Ratafia are part of the centuries-old tradition of farming, handed down from generation to generation. It is traditionally produced by placing, in varying proportions according to the local recipe, whole or pungent sweet cherries and sugar in glass containers exposed to the sun for about 30 days in order to favor fermentation. The product is then added to red wine, left to macerate and stirred daily for at least another 30 days, but it can also reach 5-6 months. The product is then filtered and bottled. -
Collefrisio 2019 Vignaquadra Montepulciano d’Abruzzo
$21.99 – $216.00Italy
The wood-aged Vignaquadra is one of the best wines of this dynamic wine company. Only late harvested grapes are used, which give the wine extra concentration and ripeness. Part of the Montepulciano matures in tanks and another part in oak barrels. As a result, the wood ripening in the final assembly is very dosed and the characteristic fruity and spicy flavors from Abruzzo are fully preserved. This is a truly beautiful red wine, which comes into its own best after some aeration. It goes very well with grilled meat or baguette with sausage and cheese. Despite its strength, it is a true four-season wine that – if slightly cooled – is very tasty even on a hot day.

Collefrisio 2021 Appassimento
$26.99 – $132.00Abruzzi Italy
The successful winemakers of Collefrisio in Abruzzo also offer a beautiful appassimento. The 60% montepulciano and 20% merlot grapes dry on the vine and are only harvested in the second half of October. The 'normally' harvested sangiovese adds freshness to the wine and creates a nice balance with the concentrated, dried grapes. Collefrisio's winemaker Amedeo de Luca dispenses with oak ripening and prefers the concentrated fruit aromas that characterize the appassimento method. The result is a dark-colored red wine that smells beautifully of ripe blackberries and cherries. It also has a great taste thickness with a lot of flexibility.
