Torgiano Rosso Riserva DOCG Vigna Monticchio Rubesco 2018 Lungarotti

The Torgiano Rosso Riserva Rubesco Vigna Monticchio di Lungarotti was born in the Monticchio vineyard, located on the Brufa hill, in the municipality of Torgiano.

It is produced 80% with Sangiovese grapes and 20% with Canaiolo grapes, harvested during the month of October. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, with maceration on the skins, for about 15-20 days. Subsequently the wine ages in oak barrels for about 12 months and for further 4 years in bottle.

It is characterized by an intense ruby red color, with purple hues. The nose opens with an elegant and complex bouquet, with hints of violet enriched with pleasant spicy notes of cocoa and coffee. On the palate it is warm and complex, with a lively and pleasantly fresh acidity. The wine has intriguing tannins and a long and spicy finish.

Perfect to accompany grilled red meats, it is ideal in combination with roasts and aged cheeses.
