The Capanna 2020 Rosso di Montalcino is fresh and bright with wild cherries, crushed flowers and violets. This pretty but simple wine has the natural acidity and moderate structure to pair with your favorite home-cooked pasta dinner or even a simple chicken roast. There is a clear note of sweet cherry on the close. With 25,000 bottles released, Capanna sources most of the fruit for this wine directly from its Brunello di Montalcino vineyards.

The 2020 Rosso di Montalcino is understated and finessed with pretty rose and violet florals over dusty red currants and hints of spice. This is soft-textured and more savory than sweet with mineral-tinged strawberry fruits. It tapers off with medium length and lightly structured, leaving hints of licorice.

Rosy and lifted, the 2020 Rosso Di Montalcino is fresh with red berries and strawberries, as well as a sweet perfume of flowers and licorice. Medium-bodied and pure, this an exceptional Rosso, with fine tannins, fresh acidity, and a clean finish. Revealing notes of raspberry, fresh tarragon, and salty earth, this is a wonderfully refreshing wine to drink over the next couple of years.
