Tua Rita • Perlato del Bosco Rosso – 2020
Made with Sangiovese, the 2020 Perlato del Bosco shows ripe flavors of cherry and baked plum. Stefano Frascolla tells me that this grape is especially vulnerable in hot vintages but 2020 actually wasn't too bad in the end. He shows me a picture taken on September 6th of healthy, vigorous green vines. The bigger problems in 2020 were the COVID-19 lockdowns and social distancing protocols. This wine offers soft and upfront fruit. The tannins are more etched in this vintage.

LE MACCHIOLE Bolgheri Rosso 2020
Grilled herbs, orange zest, black plums, cherries, peach stones and peppercorns on the nose. Medium-bodied with creamy tannins. It’s deliciously round and fruity, yet firm, with a long and polished finish. Merlot, cabernet franc, cabernet sauvignon and syrah. So drinkable already. Drink or hold.
