Rosso di Montalcino, Canalicchio di Sopra 2024
Red Wine from Italy - Tuscany
Elegant and energetic, this Tuscan red is a fine introduction to the wines of Canalicchio di Sopra. Winemaker and third-generation family member Francesco Ripaccioli describes Rosso di Montalcino as the estate’s ‘business card’, effectively a declassified Brunello, with most of the vineyards qualifying for Brunello status. The 2024 is vivid and finely layered, showing bright red cherry and rosemary, with savoury spice and a stony mineral edge. There is real intensity at the core, balanced by freshness and structure, giving both immediate appeal and excellent ageing potential.

Canalicchio Di Sopra
Located in Montalcino in Tuscany, this fine estate is run by the gifted Francesco Ripaccioli, whose parents first decided to leave the local co-operative and bottle on their own wine in 1966. As well as vineyards, the family estate also contains two hectares of olive groves.
The heart of the estate is 16 hectares of Brunello vines. Importantly, these are in two different locations, which combine to add extra complexity to the family’s wine. 10 hectares are on clay soils at Canalicchio, to the north of the town, while six hectares are at Gode di Montosoli on rocky, galestro (schist) soil, giving added structure. Only vines which are over 20 years old are used for the family’s Brunello.
