93 Pts Antonio Galloni - Vinous	"A bold, rich wine, the 2012 Montecucco Rosso Riserva ColleMassari offers notable intensity along with a powerful, authoritative voice. Sweet red cherry, plum, spice and white pepper open up with time, but the 2012 still needs bottle age to be fully expressive. There is plenty to like in this dense yet tightly-coiled Sangiovese-based red from ColleMassari." Reviewed July 2015.
91 Pts James Suckling - Jamessuckling.com	"A chewy red with dried berry, vanilla bean, and dried strawberry character. Full body, rich and powerful. Best Montecucco out there. Drink now." Reviewed August 2015.

Description:

"Intense and persistent nose with clear notes of small black fruit, then emerge progressively aromas of sweet and balsamic spices. The palate is soft and harmonious, with a full and structured tannin. The final is broad and enveloping, of great length, the balsamic spicy comes back, with notes of liquorice and cacao that integrates beautifully with the tannic matrix." - Importer

Montecucco Rosso is a relatively new DOC for Tuscany, though the region has an extensive history of winemaking...as most of Italy does. The Montecucco zone is in southwestern Tuscany, on hillsides just across the way from the vineyards of Brunello. As in the rest of Tuscany, Sangiovese is king in Montecucco and makes up the dominant portion of the Rosso blend.

The Colle Massari estate was founded in 1998 by a brother and sister team and in 2014 was named winery of the year by Italy's influential food and wine magazine Gambero Rosso. Their 2012 Rosso Riserva is a Sangiovese-based blend (80%), with a dash of the local variety Ciliegiolo and a pinch of Cabernet Sauvignon. By producing such phenomenal expressions of Sangiovese, Colle Massari has done much to elevate the reputation of Montecucco. Don't wait too long. It's only a matter of time before Montecucco gains the prestige of its Tuscan neighbors.
