Le Potazzine Rosso Di Montalcino 2024
Produced in the heart of Tuscany, Italy, this refined red wine comes from the prestigious Montalcino region. The Le Potazzine estate, owned by Gigliola Giannetti and her daughters Viola and Sofia, is named after the colourful, vivacious birds of the Tuscan countryside—a term of endearment used for the daughters by their grandmother. The winery is celebrated for its traditionalist philosophy, utilizing high-altitude vineyards (400–500m) and spontaneous fermentations with indigenous yeasts to produce wines of exceptional elegance and personality.
Wine Description
The 2024 Rosso di Montalcino is an elegant, early-drinking expression that exhibits a bright ruby red colour. On the nose, it offers a fresh bouquet of red berries, wild herbs, and subtle floral hints. The palate is supple and well-balanced, featuring fine tannins, juicy acidity, and a persistent, savoury finish. This 100% certified organic Sangiovese is fermented spontaneously for 30–40 days without temperature control and aged for 10–12 months in large, mostly old Slavonian oak casks. While approachable in its youth, its structure and depth allow for further development in the bottle, reflecting the estate's focused terroir expression.
