“Alpha” Vino Rosso 2021

Montepeloso | Tuscany
Agr. Montepeloso | Località Montepeloso 82 | IT 57028 Suvereto

"Rich, deep dark ruby violet. Intense nose, opens with notes of dark chocolate, then lots of blackberry and cassis, underpinned by fine graphite. Medium weight on the palate, showing lots of crunchy currant fruit, some beetroot, grippy tannin." Falstaff

"The 2021 Alpha is a new wine from Montepeloso. It offers sweet, dark plum fruit, graphite, menthol and liquorice, framed by jabbing tannins that need a little time to soften, though I imagine most bottles will be long gone before that happens. Alpha is a blend of young vines and some bought-in fruit." Vinous

"A rich and firm red wine with aromas and flavours of dark berries and dark earth. Medium to full-bodied with solid tannins and a flavourful finish." James Suckling

"Here is a new submission from Montepeloso in Suvereto, Tuscany, described as a "vino rosso" (or no appellation). The 2021 Alpha shows a rich and lush personality with medium weight fruit. There is plenty of tart fruit, with the two characteristics - acidity and tannins - giving this young wine the qualifications to pair with a hearty pasta or grilled meats." Wine Advocate
