Donatella Cinelli Colombini
Leone Rosso
DOC Orcia is produced in 13 municipalities between Brunello di Montalcino and Vino Nobile di Montepulciano. This is 60/40 sangiovese/merlot from the historic estate, built by Donatella Cinelli Colombini's ancestors in 1592 (reflected by the red lion on the label). This younger vine red spends 6 months in medium / large oak. Juicy and succulent ripe red fruit is scented with balsam, and hugged by sticky tannins, finishing with a warm flush and kiss of bitter dark chocolate. A warming red well suited to autumnal braises or ragu.
“Aromas of blueberries, red plums, violets and wild bush, followed by baking spices and bitter almonds. Medium- to-full-bodied with bright acidity and study tannins. Sangiovese and merlot. From organically grown grapes. Drink now or hold.” - 90 points, Zekun Shuai, JamesSuckling.com, October 9, 2023
