Rosso di Montalcino DOC 2023 Rabissi

The Rosso di Montalcino by Rabissi is a Tuscan red wine made exclusively from Sangiovese grapes grown in the Castelnuovo dell’Abate area of Montalcino. The vineyard, located at an altitude between 200 and 300 meters above sea level, thrives on predominantly clay soils. The manual harvest of the grapes allows for careful selection of the clusters to ensure the highest quality of the final product.

The winemaking process involves red maceration, during which the grape skins and must remain in contact for a period of 10 to 15 days. After malolactic fermentation, the wine is transferred to steel for an initial resting period. The subsequent aging phase takes place in small oak barrels, where the wine acquires aromatic complexity and greater balance, while still maintaining freshness and structure.

In appearance, it showcases a bright ruby red color, enriched with garnet reflections. The aromatic profile is broad, with notes of ripe red fruit and jam, accompanied by toasted and spicy hints, with touches of vanilla. On the palate, it is warm, elegant, and persistent, with a good tannic structure that harmoniously balances with a pleasant freshness, making it a wine of remarkable balance.

It is ideal when paired with typical Tuscan cured meats and cheeses, fresh pasta dishes with meat ragù, liver crostini, and delicate roasts.
