Item # 39069

Vinous and elegant, this Rosso di Montalcino was aged in old Slavonian casks for just under a year before bottling.

They have a mere 2 ha of vines dedicated to making this fine Tuscan red wine that you can drink while you're waiting for your Brunello to age.

Staff Pick Notes

I thought this wine would be part of some tasty picks at friends dinner event. It did not not disappoint, matter of fact it paired with more food choices than any of the other wines.

Aged for just a year, unlike the four required for Brunello, the wine offers up fresh red cherry aromas interlaced with subtle herbs. Great acidity lifts the wine and with only delicate tannin found, really gives the wine structure. Just a perfect wine from this region of Italy.
