Calderara Sottana reels with a beguiling blend of rose petals and geraniums giving way to cloves and woodland berries. Cool-toned and pliant, this maintains its floral character throughout while adding hints of sour citrus that add primary depths. Calderara Sottana minerality and gripping tannins come through on the finish as the 2022 leaves the senses saturated, while a resonance of brown spice lingers on. Have patience with this beastly effort — it may be even better with time.
