"Charming, intriguing, delicious, and exceptional value..."

  <https://email.fromvineyardsdirect.com/files/amf_mrwheeler_wine/project_110/Grey_Horizontalk_Rule_Thin.jpg>

Good afternoon,

As a keen follower of fine Italian red wines — particularly of those made 
from sangiovese — I've been eager to get my hands on a bottle of the new 
2019 Castello di Potentino 'Sacromonte' Rosso and experience first-hand the 
glory of this perfectly mature Italian gem.

From their vineyards just outside Brunello di Montalcino, Castello di 
Potentino's 'Sacromonte' Rosso is made exclusively of sangiovese that's been 
fermented then aged for two years in fine French oak barrels followed by 
extensive in-bottle cellaring at the estate.

Now seven years from harvest, this perfectly ripe, outstanding 2019 vintage 
is showing very nicely indeed, with a pinot noir-like elegance, deeply 
complex aromatics, and a layered palate that is just delightful.

But that such a fine Italian red with this level of maturity can be enjoyed 
through our launch offer for as little as £16.95 a bottle is simply too good 
to pass up. So if you too relish the elegance and complexity that only time 
can afford the best sangiovese, you're in for a treat.

And although it's a truly delicious glass all by itself, a wine of this 
style and calibre really deserves to be served at the dinner table. Because 
that's where those remaining fine tannins will mellow and integrate, 
permitting the real magic to be revealed.

All in all, this 2019 is charming, intriguing and delicious while offering 
exceptional value for money. See my full notes below.

My Notes | Tasted March 2026

When pouring, the subtle garnet colour with a gently fading brim hints at a 
level of maturity reminiscent of fine, mature pinot noir or nebbiolo.

The aromas are in keeping with the visuals, offering a swathe of ripe 
morello cherry and red berry fruit that initially releases from the glass. 
Yet sitting just behind the fruit are whisps of tobacco leaf, cigar and 
warming oak.

The palate is equally impressive. I was fortunate enough to taste the 2016 
vintage just a few weeks ago, which was notable for all its tertiary notes. 
However, as well as those glorious layers of flavour, this 2019 release is 
matched with an even greater intensity of fruit, making for a deeply 
complex, elegantly layered glass of red.

Sweet red cherry and dark brambly currant are initially complimented by a 
wisp of truffle and mushroom with an almost gamey charm, leading to a 
mouth-coating grip that frames the flavours without impeding them. That 
red-berry fruit comes with a crispness that cleanses the palate a little, 
allowing all those delicate layers of flavour to reveal themselves.

There's a wonderful finish too, where those notes of fruit, cinders, oak and 
truffly deliciousness hold for a good time allowing you to really savour the 
experience and unpick the flavours.

The 2016 had aged beautifully and this 2019 is following suit. At it's 
current phase of evolution I think this is spot-on for drinking, however if 
you favour more tertiary notes and subtler fruit then you can certainly keep 
this for another 3-5 years — possibly longer.

For my tastes there's a huge amount to enjoy right now, so I say get 
cracking!
