This tiny estate is located in the area of Sesta - Montalcino’s wild southeastern reaches. Sesta di Sopra’s wines capture the scented Mediterranean vegetation and generous warmth – even in 2018. Violet, dark plum and cinnamon scents give way to exotic woodland herbs and even porcini nuances. One of the vintage's more sumptuous examples, it proposes ample plush fruit hemmed in by firm yet seductively textured tannins. An appetising minerality runs through it, and lingering succulence begs another sip.
