Vineyard and terroir

Rosamundi comes from the Poggetti Estate at Massa Marittima. The south-west-facing vineyards grow on rich, slightly acidic clay soil. The estate lies in the Metalliferous Hills about 7 km from the Tyrrhenian Sea, where hot days, long sun exposure and cool evenings influence the growing season. The broader estate soils are also characterized as dynamic and mineral-rich.

Grapes

100% Sangiovese.

Vinification

Sangiovese is harvested in the second week of September. The wine is vinified in the manner of a white wine, without skin contact: the skins are immediately separated from the must through gentle pressing. Fermentation lasts approximately 21 days in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks. Dry ice is used to prevent contact with air and preserve the bouquet and pink color. The published fermentation temperature is 64°C.

Ageing

Following the first racking, the wine remains on its lees for up to 15 days before bottling.

Tasting profile

Deep rose-pink. Strawberry and rose shape the bouquet, while the palate presents ripe cherry, mineral notes and a dry finish. The wine is made in a structured rosé style with a light earthy component.
