In the glass, it displays a very intense ruby colour and reveals an aromatic profile centred on notes of black cherry, ripe plum and blackberry. On the palate, it offers a full and velvety body, supported by soft, mature tannins that elegantly merge with \u003cstrong\u003ehints of Mediterranean herbs\u003c\/strong\u003e, tobacco and sweet spices. Tasting this wine from the Tuscan Maremma concludes with a \u003cstrong\u003elively mineral freshness\u003c\/strong\u003e and a warm, persistent finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes come from the picturesque area of Roccastrada, in the heart of the Tuscan Maremma. The Rocca di Montemassi estate enjoys a \u003cstrong\u003ewarm Mediterranean climate\u003c\/strong\u003e, tempered by the proximity of the Tyrrhenian Sea, which ensures a marked diurnal temperature range, favouring the optimal ripening of the grapes.

This is followed by a further four months of ageing to perfectly harmonise the flavour profile. After a \u003cstrong\u003ebrief decanting\u003c\/strong\u003e, this intense red expresses itself best when paired with \u003cstrong\u003egame dishes\u003c\/strong\u003e, classic pappardelle with wild boar ragù, grilled meats and hard cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in 2000 in Roccastrada, \u003cstrong\u003eTenuta Rocca di Montemassi\u003c\/strong\u003e skilfully combines modern technologies and ancient traditions to create wines of great character.
