2023 Fuligni "Ginestreto" Rosso di Montalcino

This is essentially a "Baby Brunello" from one of the most prestigious names in the appellation. The "Ginestreto" is sourced from the estate's younger vines and a specific plot that yields fruit with incredible vibrancy and perfume. In the 2023 vintage—a year defined by freshness and balance—this Rosso is singing. The nose is a beautiful, high-toned display of wild red cherry, raspberry, and pressed violets, with that signature Fuligni dustiness and a touch of white pepper. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and "crunchy," with a snappy acidity that makes the fruit pop. The tannins are polished and silky, making this incredibly drinkable right now. It’s perfect for a weekday pasta with ragù or a simple grilled steak. A touch of class for the price.
