Querciabella Mongrana in Maremma Toscana Rosso DOC 2021 Rated 94WE

Wine Enthusiast Review
Rated 93
The nose is springtime in the English countryside, with fruit and flowers wafting over the aroma of cobblestones after a heavy rain. That mix of floral freshness and damp saltiness lingers onto the palate, while the tannins look on, before acid blows through like a strong wind.

Wine Tasting Notes
Intense ruby red in the glass, the charm of Mongrana does not take long to reveal itself. Well-defined aromas of ripe fruit, morello cherry, blackberry and blueberry especially anticipate notes of kirsch, ivy, pine needles. As soon as the wine opens up in the glass, a more complex bouquet starts to emerge with slight hints of leather, coffee powder and cocoa enriched by a touch of liquorice. Juicy, fresh sip, with soft tannins. The long finale is savory with mineral, iron notes that persist in the mouth.

Food Pairing
Recommended to drink young, though this wine will continue to develop and mature for at least ten years.
