Alessandro Mori's Wines has made Il Marroneto one of Montalcino's best wineries in just a few years. Today he runs the company together with his son Jacopo. The wines reflect their passionate, simple and outspoken character, which at first sight seems reserved and austere, but slowly opens up to reveal a harmonious synthesis of elegance and power. In 2019, he has decided to produce a selection from some of his best grapes - named after his son Jacopo - and in such a small edition that we are the only ones in the German market to be allocated a few cases. SUPERIORE.DE

"Rich, bright ruby red. In the nose juicy blackberries, blood orange, some bitter almond, in the aftertaste kitchen herbs. With great juiciness on the palate, dense, clear fruit, embedded in hearty tannin, radiant, beautiful length." Falstaff

"Attractive aromas of cherries, rosemary, sage, cocoa and light spices. Medium body with a silky texture. Refined and polished with a crisp red fruit character and a long finish with spicy notes." James Suckling

"The Il Marroneto 2020 Rosso di Montalcino Iacopo opens with a darker garnet colour and richer saturation compared to the Ignaccio. The added fruit weight carries over to aromas of plums and black cherries. The freshness of the fruit is intact, and this wine is very bright and energetic in terms of mouthfeel." Wine Advocate

"The 2020 Rosso di Montalcino Selezione Iacopo is a dusty and perfumed beauty in the glass. It exudes notes of dried strawberries, plums, stone dust and a hint of sweet spice. On the palate, it unfolds with grace, carried by brilliant acidity and a balanced inner sweetness that turns into a salty minerality towards the end. The 2020 finishes persistently, with a fine web of tannins that underlines things perfectly. With a few years of cellaring, this will be a gorgeous Rosso with a wide and open drinking window. Only 3,000 bottles were produced." Vinous
