The 2023 Palazzo Rosso di Montalcino is luminous ruby red with subtle garnet reflections. Broad on the nose and rich in fresh floral, spicy and small red fruit notes. On the palate it is warm, enveloping, savoury and mineral. Of vibrant acidity, velvety tannins and a long finish. This wine has garnered great reviews earning 93 points from Winemag and 91 points from James Suckling, Vinous and Falstaff. In 1982, Cosimo Loia and Antonietta Palazzo, captivated by Montalcino, visited various estates before finding the place of their dreams: a 12-hectare hillside estate with a 17th-century farmhouse, looking out like a belvedere over the spectacular Val d'Orcia; later recognised as a Unesco World Heritage Site. It was also a sign of fate, the company was called Palazzo: like Antonietta's surname. It was immediately clear to them that they would become wine producers and, driven by passion and with farsightedness, they bought the rights to plant Brunello di Montalcino grapes on an area of 5 hectares. In 1985 they planted the Sangiovese Grosso vines destined for the Brunello, which they began to vinify in 1990, first as Rosso di Montalcino, with the help of their children. Then in 1994, when the vines reached the nine years of age necessary for the grapes to ripen properly, they finally celebrated the first harvest of Brunello di Montalcino.
