Rosso di Montalcino 2023 comes from the same vineyards as Brunello. The winemakers at Casato Prime Donne, just before the harvest, divide the vineyards into small plots, by tasting the grapes. Those to be used for the Rosso di Montalcino must have a good component of polyphenols and potential alcohol but lower than those that will produce the wine destined for long aging. Rosso di Montalcino must in fact give satisfaction to those who drink it in the first years of life.

After a very dry 2022, a very rainy 2023 arrived. It rained in winter and especially in spring with a June like a universal deluge.
Even in summer, very hot days alternated with thunderstorms. The grapes changed colour at the end of August and then the
ripening had a slow and regular character. An old-fashioned climate that gives rise to very classic wines.

The label depicts three doves flying out of the coat of arms. They symbolize Donatella Cinelli Colombini, her husband Carlo and her daughter Violante, the family that owns the Casato Prime Donne winery where the grapes for this wine were born, where it was vinified and aged in cask. It is in fact a “family wine”.

 

The total production of this wine for 2023 is of about 16.000 bottles.
