Antonio Galloni (Wine Advocate): "Talenti’s 2009 Rosso di Montalcino is an attractive, feminine wine graced with freshly cut flowers, strawberry jam and spices, all of which come together in a fresh, mid-weight style. This round, harmonious Rosso is quite pretty. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2016. (May 2011)"

Producer notes: "Intense ruby-red. Firm scent of mature red fruit, completed by a nice spicy component. The flavor is warm, soft and full; structured with well developed, but velvety and not aggressive tannins. Lasting after-taste. Goes well with cold meats and not much aged cheeses, as well as first courses with meat and game sauces."
