This Sangiovese is juicy and medium-bodied with lively acidity, moderate, ripe tannins and a fine minerality, and that makes it a flexible food wine rather than a heavy jug. The acidity cuts through richness and oil in classic Tuscan dishes, while the soft tannins meet nicely with the light fat in charcuterie and pasta with meat without turning tight. Red fruit, cherry and the earthy notes of rosemary and leather mirror herbs and spiced meat, so you get both resonance and freshness in the mouth. Keep the dishes medium in weight, so the wine's lightness and energy have room.

About the wine

Sangiovese from vineyards near Castelnuovo in the southern part of the appellation.

The wine beautifully showcases the house's characteristic balance between tradition and a more modern, clean style. Organically certified, fermented with natural yeast, and vinified with a focus on freshness and finesse rather than extraction.

The aroma offers red fruit, cherry, and raspberry, complemented by earthy notes, rosemary, and a hint of leather.

The taste is juicy and approachable with impressive minerality, lively acidity, and a fine berry sweetness that provides immediate drinking pleasure without compromising structure.

This is a Rosso di Montalcino – an excellent choice when you desire a Montalcino expression with lightness and energy.

The wine matures in large Slavonian botti, which supports fruit and terroir rather than oak influence.

Aged for years in large oak casks. Just mid ruby. Attractive, fragrant cherry nose underpinned by concentration and with hints of dark spice. Supple, juicy, elegant cherry fruit with gripping tannins giving depth to the perfumed fruit, but still a tiny bit unsettled.

The 2022 Rosso di Montalcino combines crushed blackberries and cherries with savory herbs, pine shavings and nuances of salt-cured meat. The palate is beautifully refined, with silken textures, savory red fruits and crunchy mineral tones. Brisk acidity punctuates it beautifully as the 2022 tapers off with a saline flourish and tart blackberry resonance.
