Description
Sourced from younger Sangiovese vines planted in 2011 on clay-limestone soils at 280-350m elevation, this Rosso di Montalcino reflects the Cortonesi family’s sustainable approach. Aged 12 months in 30hl Slavonian oak, it reveals a bright ruby hue with aromas of fresh cherry, wild herbs, and earthy undertones. The palate balances vibrant red fruit and rosemary notes with structured tannins and a mineral-driven finish. Hand-harvested and unfiltered, it offers approachable depth, pairing beautifully with roasted poultry, pasta dishes, or charcuterie. A testament to Tommaso Cortonesi’s dedication to terroir expression in Montalcino’s northern slopes.
