Product details
Voliero represents a distinctive vision from Andrea Cortonesi, site in Montalcino, Tuscany. The 2019 expression captures the varietal’s purity with thoughtful restraint—organically grown Sangiovese aged patiently in large Slavonian and French oak casks for 30 months, resulting in approximately 7,600 bottles that begin their journey fully poised yet promising graceful evolution.
This bottling opens with a menthol-tinged freshness, leading into a bouquet rich with crushed cherries, mint leaf, clove, and dusty rose—silky and energetic, with red-berry crunch framed by spice and saline nuance. The finish is both saline and spicy, supported by edged acidity and firm, chalky structure that leaves a lingering tart cranberry impression. This expression pairs beautifully with dishes like roasted lamb, whose savory depth complements the fruit-driven vibrancy and refined, structured texture.
