Tasting Profile & Food Pairing Awarded 92 points by Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate, this Rosso di Montalcino presents an enticing bouquet of wild cherries, violets, and subtle Mediterranean herbs, which give way to a palate layered with juicy red berry fruit, gentle spice, and a touch of minerality. The tannins are polished yet energetic, contributing to a supple mouthfeel and a savory, lingering finish. Exceptionally versatile, this wine pairs beautifully with herb-roasted chicken, classic Margherita pizza, or a wedge of Pecorino Toscano, making it an ideal match for a range of rustic Italian dishes.
