Rosso di Montalcino 2023

What kind of wine it is

La Rasina's Rosso di Montalcino is a still red wine that clearly expresses the character of Sangiovese grown in the Tuscan region. This label stands out for its fragrant aromatic profile and lively entry on the palate, managing to combine agility and structure. The sip reveals a well-defined dark fruit, supported by a noticeable yet well-integrated tannic texture, which gives the wine a pleasant smoothness. Ideal for accompanying convivial evenings, it is best enjoyed served at a temperature between sixteen and eighteen degrees. A faithful expression of the terroir, perfect for immediate consumption or for a slow evolution in the cellar, as it can rest for five to ten years.

Where it comes from

This Rosso di Montalcino originates in the heart of Tuscany, from vineyards managed according to the strict principles of organic and sustainable agriculture. The La Rasina estate works carefully to enhance the natural vocation of the Montalcino area, guided by the expertise of oenologist Marco Mantengoli. The fourteen hectares of property are entirely dedicated to the care of Sangiovese, with the aim of preserving its authentic identity. The consistent quality of production is evidenced by numerous awards from wine critics, including ratings from James Suckling, Bibenda and Veronelli, which reward the territorial adherence and expressive freshness of the glass.

How it is produced

The production process begins with vinification that pays close attention to the aromatic purity of the Sangiovese grapes. Subsequently, the wine matures through ageing in barrels for four or five months, a technical step that enriches the body and supports the tannic definition, ensuring greater intensity without overpowering its natural fragrance. In appearance, the glass shows a brilliant ruby red colour, anticipating a pleasant and open bouquet. The tasting reveals a marked savoury component, harmonised by intense notes that lead to a balanced and easy-drinking finish.
