Description
The Rosso di Montalcino by Pinino is made with Sangiovese grosso grapes from vineyards located in the north and northeast areas of Montalcino, on different soil types: rich in galestro and alberese in the Pinino lands, almost purely clayey with silt in those of Canchi. The altitudes vary between 284 and 318 meters, with southeast exposure, and the vineyards are trained on a spurred cordon.
The grapes, harvested by hand in the second half of September, are vinified in temperature-controlled steel vats, with macerations lasting 18–25 days. The wine then matures for at least 6 months in oak barrels before being bottled.
It presents itself with a lively red color. Intense aromas of raspberry and cherry stand out on the nose with delicate spicy notes. The sip is fresh, with a balanced body, velvety tannins, and a pleasant persistence that makes it versatile and satisfying.
Ideal with flavorful first courses, roast meats, and semi-aged cheeses.
