Tasting notes
100% Sangiovese. The only vintage that has as much as 14% on the label. Winemaker Sean O’Callaghan’s 30th vintage in Tuscany. Maceration 2–3 months. 18 months’ ageing in tonneaux, 10% new, and some in concrete and tank. Full, juicy and grippy. Not ready but should turn into something distinctive and special. (JR)

The 2021 Uno (closed with a white wax capsule) shows a medium-dark garnet appearance with pretty color saturation. This is 100% Sangiovese with fruit sourced from the village of Radda. There is a slightly wild side to the bouquet with fresh iris, pressed rose and cassis. Uno does a great job of bringing out both the delicate fruit tones and the floral side of the grape. Its texture is silky, long and polished. Annual production is about 20,000 bottles.
The 2021 Uno (Sangiovese) is a gorgeous, super-classic red from Sean O'Callaghan. Readers will have to be patient with the 2021, as it is a driving, structured wine, its mid-weight structure notwithstanding. The Uno is a fine example of a style and approach very much inspired by the wines of Burgundy.
