Made with Sangiovese, the 2020 Perlato del Bosco shows ripe flavors of cherry and baked plum. Stefano Frascolla tells me that this grape is especially vulnerable in hot vintages but 2020 actually wasn't too bad in the end. He shows me a picture taken on September 6th of healthy, vigorous green vines. The bigger problems in 2020 were the COVID-19 lockdowns and social distancing protocols. This wine offers soft and upfront fruit. The tannins are more etched in this vintage.
This pure sangiovese is fresh and very focused, with lovely fruit, from cherries to peaches. Medium-bodied with well-integrated, fine tannins. Bright, vivid acidity and a creamy finish.
Bright ruby with lighter rim. An appealing nose of ripe dark cherries and some raspberry. On the palate it's supple and surprisingly round, with a core again of ripe berry fruit underlaid by grippy tannin.
The burst of Bing cherry and wild strawberry with rose petals and tar on the nose announces the equally exuberant palate of more fresh berries with earth tones of crushed rocks and topsoil, held up by sturdy but flexible tannins that promise more elegance with age.
