ROSSO DI MONTALCINO

ROSSO DI MONTALCINO DOC

100% Sangiovese Grosso (declassed Brunello)

Once called ‘Vermiglio’ (vermilion), Rosso di Montalcino is a dry, fruity red wine produced in the village of Montalcino in Tuscany. Rosso comes from the same area of origin as the prestigious Brunello di Montalcino, sharing the same Mediterranean climate and also based on 100% Sangiovese. However, Rosso di Montalcino is released sooner and is therefore more youthful than Brunello. Rosso di Montalcino has had its own DOC since 1983.

Fermentation in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature and maceration for 15 days then aged 1 year in Oak Barrels and 2 months in bottle before its release.

Brilliant ruby ​​red color, with a pleasant and predominantly fruity nose, with hints of cherry, morello cherry and red fruits. In the mouth it is medium-bodied, dry and fresh, with a nice persistence.
