The 2007 Rosso di Montalcino is a fresh, floral Rosso to enjoy over the next few years. Ideally the wine needs to be opened 30 minutes or so prior to serving to allow for some small imperfections to blow off. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2011. Casanuova delle Cerbaie was purchased in early 2008 by American collector and investor Roy Welland, who is probably best known in wine circles for his New York restaurant Cru, which is also home to one of the world’s most breathtaking winelists. Welland and his team, which includes the talented Robert Bohr, are still in the process of making major improvements to the winery. Given the naturally slow pace of these operations, it will take at least a vintage or two before the results start showing up in the wines. No expense is being spared, and it will be fascinating to see where the wines go from here.Importer: Massanois Imports, Washington, DC; tel. (202) 470-6769
