Wine Review: This dark ruby colored Rosso di Montalcino opens with a very attractive black cherry and blueberry bouquet with hints of strawberry licorice. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied and balanced. The flavor profile is a very tasty black cherry and cedar plank blend. I also detected hints of strawberry licorice, gentle minerality and a hint of thyme. The finish is dry and its flavors drift away nicely. This wine is very food friendly. I would pair it with a black mission fig and salami bruschetta. Enjoy – Ken

Winemaker Notes: Rosso di Montalcino is deep ruby red in color. It is medium bodied with a good concentration on the mid-palate. Elegant in the mouth, it is well balanced with tempting flavors of red berries, violets, menthol and earthiness. A generous wine with smooth, velvety tannins that will satisfy all Sangiovese lovers. The perfect companion at mealtimes, it is ideal paired with red meat, veal, bruschetta and all kinds of cheeses and pasta dishes.
