Winery - Collelungo

Showing 1-4

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Collelungo opens with a luminous and vibrant ruby color and offers deep oak tones that are followed by less intense aromas of blackberry, red cherry and cinnamon. In the mouth, the wine is soft and velvety with lingering oak spice on the finish.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Here’s an oak-driven expression of Sangiovese (and 10% Merlot) with smoky overlays of roasted almond and sweet Christmas spice. The wine is soft and round in the mouth but lacks the fresh fruit notes you expect to find in Chianti Classico and delivers plenty of toasted wood instead.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This bright, ruby-colored wine (with 10% Merlot) offers youthful tones of sweet berry, almond blossom and fresh blueberry. Tastes and feels very young at this stage. It has a lively mouthfeel with fresh acidity on the end.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This is a ripe and meaty wine (a second Riserva, next to the estate’s Riserva Campocerchi) with enduring notes of wet earth, smoke meat, red cherry and dried apple skins. It tastes plump, succulent and bright and would pair well with stewed beef.
