Here is a wine that fulfils a very specific and important objective: It is exactly the bottle you want when you are sitting in front of your favourite meal with your favourite family or friends. Rosso di Montalcino Ignaccio stands for fruit, elegance, energy, good humour, accessibility and informality. It comes out of the bottle with a bright ruby red colour and exudes delicate aromas of wild berries, blue flowers and slight hints of sweet spices. There is that subtle note of freshly ground white pepper again in this vintage that you only see in cool climate Sangiovese or other wild indigenous Italian grape varieties. It is amazing how Il Marroneto manages to produce such a fruity and at the same time absolutely harmonious Rosso (6,000 bottles produced) year after year. SUPERIORE.DE

"Dark, bright, rich ruby red colour. Dark fruity nose, rich cherry, rich plum, roasted almond, reminiscent of dried sage on the finish. Hearty on the palate, full-bodied with deep, dark fruit and compact tannins, plus beautiful juiciness, rich and full-bodied." Falstaff

"The 2022 Rosso di Montalcino Ignaccio is exotic with a tantalising blend of spiced blood oranges, wild strawberries, rose petals and a hint of spice. It is juicy and vibrantly fresh, lapping the palate with ripe raspberry and cherry fruit, while taking on a chalky minerality towards the finish. Sour citrus fruits enliven the flavour experience, while the finish is long and colourful, but still remarkably fresh. A hint of violet blossom leaves the mouth wanting more. Simply enchanting. This wine is already an absolute pleasure, but also has the balance needed for a short ageing period." Vinous

"A really perfumed, floral expression of Sangiovese, with plenty of lavender, violet and garrigue. Grippy and dusty tannins clamp the palate, with the promise of some delicious juiciness in time. Sturdy yet finessed, earthy wild berries and pomegranate mingle with bitter herbs and spice, then a fresh, saline finish with glimpses of spice and blood orange." Decanter

"The Il Marroneto 2022 Rosso di Montalcino Ignaccio is characterised by brightness and freshness with wild berries, blue flowers and navel orange." Wine Advocate

"A fragrant red full of heady aromas of sweet violets, cinnamon, smoke, forest, slate, minerals and orange peel. Crisp, exuberant acidity on the palate with velvety tannins and a chalky, medium to full-bodied and polished finish." James Suckling
