Montalcino red

It is an intense ruby red wine, appreciated for its intense and complex aromas of black cherries and berries, with tertiary notes of spices and vanilla due to the aging in wooden barrels. As we said, compared to Brunello, Rosso di Montalcino is fresher and easier to drink, while maintaining the character and structure of Sangiovese, reflecting the territory; let's not forget that we are in the heart of Tuscany, in one of the most suitable areas in the world for the production of wine.
