The organic Monteraponi 2019 Baron'Ugo (made with Sangiovese with tiny percentages of Canaiolo and Colorino from 49-year-old vines at a special site with limestone alberese soils perched at 560 meters above sea level) knocks it out of the park in this balanced vintage. The 2019 growing season is known for its concentration and power, and although this wine delivers on those fronts, it does so with a gentle touch. The wine remains slender and focused in presentation with elegant aromas of wild berry, rose, lilac and crushed stone that lift elegantly from the bouquet. Baron'Ugo stands apart in 2019.
The 2019 Baron'Ugo is sourced from a vineyard established in 1974, among the first vines planted by Antonio Braganti when he purchased the property. It sits at 560 meters in elevation, which is a positive now but could not have been at the time. Baron'Ugo is distinguished by its red-toned fruit, along with hints of iron, leather, white pepper, mint and blood orange that gradually open in the glass, adding considerable nuance throughout. The 2019 spent three years in cask. This is Radda turbocharged to the maximum. But readers have to be patient, as the 2019 is pretty austere today.
