About this wine

Grapes

Sangiovese grown in Montalcino, expressed in a style intended to preserve the variety’s fragrance and freshness.

Ageing

Matured for 4–5 months in oak. The Italian presentation identifies the vessels more specifically as barriques. Bottle ageing lasts a further 2–3 months.

Technical data

Rosso di Montalcino D.O.C. Annual production is 15,000 bottles.

Tasting profile

Brilliant, deep ruby red. The nose is pleasant, fresh and fragrant. The palate is intense, savoury and tannic, with good body and structure.

Serving and pairing

Serve at 18 °C, preferably from a carafe. Suitable throughout a meal and particularly well matched with grilled red meat.
