Comment on noteThe wine
I invite you to discover a wine that whispers the history of Montalcino, a Rosso faithful to its roots. This Tiezzi 2021 is not just a bottle, it is an encounter with the heritage of an estate that perpetuates ancestral practices, offering a pure expression of Sangiovese.
Nestled in the heart of Tuscany, the Tiezzi estate, whose history is lost in the centuries, is a true institution in Montalcino. Here, the oenologist Enzo Tiezzi personally ensures that every Rosso di Montalcino is made according to the old ways. It is within this philosophy that the 2021 vintage is inscribed, a wine that embodies the quintessence of the Sangiovese grape, the undisputed king of this prestigious appellation.
This Rosso di Montalcino reveals itself in a robe of intense ruby red, a promise of beautiful concentration. On the nose, you will be charmed by a rich and expressive bouquet, where red fruits dominate with elegance: I perceive notes of plum, blackcurrant and strawberry, complemented by subtle spicy and floral touches that add to its complexity. On the palate, the wine offers remarkable amplitude and beautiful freshness, the fruity aromas perceived on the nose are found there with a pleasant persistence. The vinification, with fermentation in steel tanks and maceration on the skins, followed by 6 to 12 months of aging, contributes to this harmony.
To accompany this Rosso di Montalcino 2021, I suggest you turn to the generous flavors of Tuscan cuisine. It will be an ideal companion for grilled or sauced red meats, where its structure can express itself fully. Local cured meats, such as a good Tuscan salami, or aged cheeses, will also find in it a choice ally. This wine is an invitation to conviviality, perfect for a meal with friends or an intimate evening where you wish to savor the authenticity of a great terroir.
