Castelluccio Sangiovese Ronco dei Cigliegi 2011
It’s one of the historical Ronchi of Castelluccio, produced from small and sparse Sangiovese grapes, grown at 350 mt. (1.050 fts above sea level) in the vineyard carrying the same name. It is a toponym linked to an easily identifiable element, visible from the access driveway: two huge Cherry trees (Ciliegi), that unmistakably break away from the bushes, almost as a border signal.

Colour

Intense ruby red, with garnet tendencies.

Bouquet

Wide, rich and spicy, with hints of cherries and juniper.

Flavour

Full, extremely harmonic and velvety, well balanced acidity with tannins; well proportioned oak component to the wine's fruit.

Pairing

Roasted red meat, noble poultry and game; dishes of important meat, regional cuisine dishes.
