Here I’m finding a beautifully perfumed expression of Sangiovese Rosato, as the 2019 Barberani Amore lifts from the glass with dusty florals, young peach, and melon tones. On the palate, silky textures coast across a core of brisk acidity, ushering in notes of citrus-tinged apple with sweet inner florals developing toward the close. It finishes fresh, clean, but also quite energetic, as sour melon and orchard fruits fade, leaving a twang of saline-minerality. This is so pretty, and at only 10% abv, it makes for a perfect summer sipper.
