Rosso di Montalcino by Castello Romitorio is a direct and informal interpretation of Sangiovese grape in Montalcino terroir, aged in oak for 10 months. Boasting a juicy and mediterranean character, on the nose is plenty of cherry, dried prune, sage and earthy accents. Medium bodied and flowing with grippy and dry tannins, animated by nice freshness with long lasting fruity closure
