2021 Montefalco Rosso, Antonelli, Umbria, Italy

The 2021 Montefalco Rosso smolders up with an enticing bouquet that mixes crushed blackberries with sage and sweet spice. Soothingly round and cool-toned in feel, it easily sweeps across the palate. A cascade of violet inner florals further accentuates ripe red and blue fruits. Crunchy and long, yet only gently tannic, this finishes with admirable length while inviting the taster back to the glass for more.
