Details

Open for complimentary tasting in the Wine Loft. Collosorbo Rosso di Montalcino 2021.

From Thursday 4 April- Sunday 7 April, the Wine Loft will be pouring Collosorbo Rosso di Montalcino 2021.

There are few Montalcino wineries with as long a history as Tenuta Collosorbo. The Ciacci family has been involved in winemaking in the Montalcino area since the late 1800s and bottled their first Brunello in 1966. The estate has 30 hectares of vineyards and is located in the south of Montalcino on some of the regions finest terroir, near Castelnuovo dell ‘Abate. Collosorbo wines are crafted with as little intervention as possible, winemakers Lucia Sardo Suterra and Laura Sardo Suterra create their expression of Brunello by focusing on the basics and respecting the estate’s exceptional terroir. Winemaking is simple with fermentation in stainless steel and further ageing in traditional large casks, an approach that relies on and fully expresses the quality of fruit at hand. The 2021 Collosorbo Rosso di Montalcino is an old traditional wine that is fresh and velvety, the grapes for the Rosso di Montalcino come partly from the same vineyards dedicated to the production of Brunello and partly from more recently planted vineyards. Pure Sangiovese with bright  aromas of red and black cherry, wild herbs and sweet spices with notable structure and persistence, it is both an elegant and is a very versatile wine.
