Castello Romitorio works in harmony with the territory and carefully selects grapes from both old and young vineyards, hand-picked. The vinification in steel and aging in oak for about 24 months help define a structured yet harmonious red, capable of uniting precision, depth, and a very interesting evolution over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the glass, it presents an intense and multifaceted profile, where hints of ripe red fruit, sour cherry, violet, and pomegranate emerge, along with notes of oak and earthy sensations. With aging, more complex nuances of sage, soy, leather, and aromatic herbs come to the fore. The sip is broad, progressive, and enveloping, supported by firm yet fine tannins, well integrated into the structure. Freshness accompanies the wine with balance, while the finish lingers with persistence and a pleasant savory and spicy imprint.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRecommended pairings\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis \u003cstrong\u003eBrunello di Montalcino\u003c\/strong\u003e pairs well with rich and flavorful dishes from the Tuscan tradition, as well as with more complex preparations.
