Montisci has earned a cult-like following in Italy and beyond for his exquisite Cannonau, a beast of a wine that lives up to its moniker (in the local dialect, barrosu is someone brash or arrogant) while simultaneously exhibiting a grand cru level of complexity and refinement. There is no secret, just very old vines in a great site and tons of backbreaking labor year-round. Expensive, you say? Well, it sure does taste expensive.
