The 2023 vintage fully lives up to the house's own description as a “graceful and young brilliant.”
The color is intense ruby red with purple hints, and the nose opens with fresh, ripe cherries and plums, immediately signaling the vintage's juiciness and elegance.
The taste is full-bodied and lively with soft, rounded tannins and a fresh acidity that gives the wine its classic, energetic Rosso expression.
It is a wine that is easy to love.
The grapes are hand-harvested from vineyards at 180–420 meters altitude and ferment for a minimum of 15 days before the wine is aged for 5 months in large Allier barrels, 4 months in cement, and finally 5 months in the bottle.
The result is an elegant, aromatic, and exceptionally harmonious Rosso di Montalcino – exactly as it should be!

This Rosso di Montalcino is a medium-bodied Sangiovese with soft, rounded tannins and a fresh, lively acidity, and that makes it incredibly versatile at the table. The ripe cherry and plum notes and the energetic acidity suit juicy meat, where the tannins get some fat to play off, and the acidity keeps it all fresh. You get the best balance with grilled and roasted meat dishes, where the light smoke and the concentrated flavor meet the wine's intensity without drowning it out. If you choose charcuterie or a firm, mature cheese, fat and salt give the wine even more roundness.
Bright, transparent and immediately appealing, the Mastrojanni 2023 Rosso di Montalcino delivers simple, well-defined fruit with wild cherry and cassis lifted by a hint of dusty minerality. The style is clean, accessible and easy-drinking, offering freshness and clarity rather than complexity, and it achieves very solid results for the category.
