"The 2023 Rosso d'Uco hails from La Arboleda and La Consulta in the Uco Valley. A red blend of 70% Sangiovese, 20% Syrah and 10% Merlot, it delivers ripe cherry aromas with a hint of sun-kissed fruit, marmalade and a mix of green and dark berries. Dry and light-bodied on the palate, the taut and juicy flow features a subtle chalky grip and a structured mouthfeel supported by oak tannins. This is a rare Italian-inspired wine. Elevated acidity forms the core of its character."
