Every year a small quantity of wine is left in the cellar at Il Palazzone. They blend this “loose” wine and make a Vino Rosso. Since it derives from several vintages, it has no vintage listed on the bottle. The grapes used to make the Vino Rosso all qualified as Brunello di Montalcino under the strict DOCG reg-ulations, though we chose to declassify them to produce this Vino Rosso. All the component wines have spent over a year in large wood barrels, resulting in a “baby” Brunello, with all the characteristics of Montalcino and Sangiovese, but with the fruit, freshness and approachability of a Rosso di Montalcino.
Il Palazzone makes its Rosso from a blend of different vintages, so the label doesn’t show a vintage, and although categorized as a VDT or Vino da Tavola, Rosso del Palazzone is 100 % Sangiovese Grosso grapes, just like a typical Rosso di Montalcino. This deep purple wine offers a typical Montalcino Sangiovese nose of cranberries, strawberries, spice, earth and tobacco. The palate is very silky and fresh, presenting tartness and concentrated ripe fruit, with a great balance of acidity and a nice lingering finish.
