Dark-cherry and floral aromas with citrus and dried-lavender undertones. Full body and firm,chewy tannins with a solid structure and length. Needs time to soften and come together. Better after 2021.

On the palate, I'm finding a soft, silky expression, showing earthy red berry tones amidst nervous acidity, adding sweetness and saturating minerality, as grippy tannins drench the senses. The finish is long, structured, and spicy, displaying a hint of orange citrus over a layer of fine tannin and inner earth tones, with cheek-puckering acids linger on. The 2015 is a powerful wine built on a core of primary fruit and acid, yet with enough tannic clout to find beautiful balance over time. -- Eric Guido

Winery

La Serena

The Mantengoli family has owned the La Rasa property in Tuscany since 1933, but it wasn’t until 1988 that Andrea Mantengoli and his brother Marcello became involved in the production of high quality Brunello and Rosso di Montalcino wines. Starting at just 1 hectare of vineyard, the first production of their “La Serena” range was only 2,700 bottles of Brunello. This has since been increased to 30,000 bottles as the organic vineyard has been extended to 8.5 hectares.
