Description

More than a shade deeper compared with 2018. Concentrated cherry that is still youthful and with a hint of black pepper and black tea leaves. Lush but not heavy and with juicy acidity. You wouldn’t think it comes from a torrid year (but that is all relative now since the even hotter 2022 vintage). Succulent red fruit with elevated acidity but properly tied into the fruit and with a layer of sandy tannins supporting the whole. Walter Speller, jancisrobinson.com (17.5)

Delivery Information

The aim pursued right from the first vinification at Le Potazzine, was to make wine in the most natural way possible, seeking balance, elegance and outstanding personality. This is obtained with natural fermentations, thanks to indigenous yeasts, which, together with long macerations and ageing in medium-sized Slavonian oak barrels, in compliance with the tradition.

Named after the colourful and sprightly great tits which adorn the Tuscan countryside, Le Potazzine is owned by the dynamic all female team of Gigliola Gianetti and daughters Viola and Sofia. Situated southwest of the town of Montalcino, the estate boasts some of the highest vineyards in the region at 507 metres.
