Tenuta di Carleone 'Uno' Toscana IGT, Tuscany, Italy 2019
“Uno” Toscana IGT, 2019 is the flagship wine of this dynamic Radda-based estate and one of Tuscany’s most compelling modern Sangiovese bottlings. Crafted by acclaimed winemaker Sean O’Callaghan, the 2019 is 100% Sangiovese, fermented with whole clusters and aged in a mix of cement, stainless steel, and large oak casks. The superb vintage delivers vivid wild cherry, raspberry, dried flowers, orange peel, herbs, tobacco, and crushed stone with silky tannins and vibrant acidity. Energetic, soulful, and beautifully balanced, this is a thrilling Tuscan red that bridges classic Chianti character with modern precision.
"The 2019 Uno shows the darker side of Sangiovese. Wild and potent, Uno is another compelling wine from Tenuta di Carleone. Dried flowers, herbs, incense, leather and tobacco lead into a core of wild cherry fruit as the 2019 gradually opens in the glass. Stellar and compelling, Uno is absolutely fabulous in 2019."
