Over the last few years in particular, this magic has captured the imagination of the world of wine. Today, the wines of Il Marroneto are among the most sought-after by collectors and enthusiasts anywhere in the world. The 2020 vintage beautifully captures the signature style of the estate. Pouring a brilliant ruby red, the aromatics are striking and immediate. It opens with pristine notes of wild red cherry and crushed raspberry, seamlessly interwoven with complex layers of dried rose petal, blood orange zest, and a subtle undercurrent of Tuscan scrub and sweet tobacco. On the palate, this traditional Sangiovese demonstrates spectacular tension. It is medium-bodied but incredibly precise, driven by a vibrant, nervous acidity that lifts the fruit. The tannins are ultra-fine and chalky, providing a structural framework that suggests decades of cellaring potential, yet possessing an undeniable silkiness that makes it captivating even in its youth.
