Tenute Silvio Nardi Casale del Bosco Rosso di Montalcino 2023
Tuscany, ItalyThis Sangiovese is fresh and savoury, with bright red cherry and raspberry, plus hints of licorice and earthy Tuscan character. Light, lively, and ready to drink, it is made for early enjoyment with grilled sausages or roast chicken. The fruit comes from Nardi's Casale del Bosco vineyard on the cooler northwestern side of Montalcino, where the vines grow on marl and sandy soils. After at least 18 days of fermentation and maceration, the wine spends about six months in stainless steel, then ages in the bottle. Silvio Nardi purchased the Casale del Bosco estate in western Montalcino in 1950 and released his first Brunello in 1954, long before the Tuscan red was known outside Italy. Fast forward to 2026, and the family works with two contrasting Montalcino properties: Casale del Bosco, on Montalcino's cooler northwest side, which typically brings elegance, freshness, and aromatic complexity to the game; while the warmer, sunrise-facing Manachiara estate brings power, depth, and structure.Tasted: 02 October 2026Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $46.00 | 750ml | estimated retail price in the private sector |
