Almost transparent sangiovese in the glass with bright aromatics of wild strawberries and the great outdoors. Don't expect a big version of the grape, but instead something more lean and lovely for those that appreciate the depth of Sangiovese,
100% Sangivoese aged used in oak barrels to preserve structure and purity.
Podere Il Carnasciale is situated in the southern Chianti mountains in the Valdarno di Sopra region of Tuscany, thirty kilometers north of Siena and Arezzo and 60 kilometers south of Florence. True to original owner’s (Wolf Rogosky) vision, the secluded hilltop estate is run today by Bettina and her son Moritz Rogosky, in collaboration with the enologists and winemakers Peter Schilling and Marco Maffei.
The 2022 Ottantadue (Sangiovese) is gorgeous. Bright, floral and super-expressive, the Ottantadue shows the fresher side of Sangiovese. A dollop of whole clusters (20%) works so well here. The inspiration is clearly Beaujolais. Although an unusual wine, the Ottantadue is an absolute delight. The Ottantadue is fermented in cement and aged in steel, an approach that exalts fruit and freshness. This is such a beautiful wine.
