Rosso di Montalcino Tenuta Friggiale 2020

Colour to style, that of bright, medium ruby with a tight, pink rim. Succulent cherries, strawberries, and raspberries, with tones of Dry violets. Pleasant and straightforward fruit, and of quality. There are few tertiary elements, mainly because of the style and understandably its lack of bottle development. The palate reflects the noses with freshness, smooth and soft, round tannins. It is a nicely balanced Rosso with quality fruit of over 10 seconds. It is made in the style of its elder brother and not outshined. This Rosso uses a shorter ageing cycle(6+6+12), cold maceration for five days, young fruit with slightly lower fermentation temperature(2 degrees lower), and used big Slovenian. The hand-picked fruit comes from a higher altitude(450M), hence the style. We like this little Rosso as much as well as its siblings Friggiali Brunello di Montalcino 2016 we tasted. DD91.
