There are no reviews yet on this very special 2018 Troncone, though here is Vinous on the wonderful 2018 Ragnaie Rosso di Montalcino (remember that the 2016 Troncone, from higher vineyards and aged longer in barrel, scored three points above the Rosso):
The 2018 Rosso di Montalcino makes itself known with a captivating and layered display of sour cherries and animal musk deepening further with crushed dried roses, minty herbs and a dusting of savory spice. It’s silky and pliant, yet energy remains high throughout. The 2018 Rosso showcases a vivid and pure display of wild strawberry with sweet tannins building toward the close. This is lifted and feminine in feel, tapering off classically dry and poised with tactile mineral tones and a hint of licorice lingering long. The 2018 is a harmonious and graceful rendition of Le Ragnaie’s Rosso that will win a lot of hearts right out of the gate.
