Collemattoni's vineyards are in the southern sector of Sant'Angelo in Colle and Castelnuovo dell'Abate, known for their ripely-fruited, softly-structured Sangioveses that still carry a mineral quality to the fruit. Their style carries a modern purity and freshness on top of the traditions of Montalcino.
"Fragrant and savory, the 2021 Rosso from Collemattoni has typical young Sangiovese aromas of wild red berry, blue wildflower and whiffs of spice. Fresh and medium-bodied, the palate offers juicy Marasca cherry, raspberry and star anise alongside taut, polished tannins. Drink through 2026." -Kerin O’Keefe, January 2024 ©kerinokeefe.com
"The 2021 Rosso di Montalcino lifts from the glass with a smoky blendof wild herbs and berries. It's soft and round with ripe strawberry fruits and sweet spices, stepping lightly and leaving a mineral tinge toward the close. Licorice and bitter balsamic spice notes linger as the 2021 tapers off with a lovely freshness." - Eric Guido, VINOUS MEDIA
