Description
Rosso di Montalcino DOC 2022 Bio Col d'Orcia
The Rosso di Montalcino DOC 2022 Bio Col d'Orcia is a Tuscan red wine that combines the identity of Sangiovese from Montalcino with a harmonious, direct, and pleasantly gastronomic style. It is made from estate vineyards and interprets with balance one of the most prestigious territories in Italy, offering a fruity, spicy profile with good structure, ideal for those seeking an authentic and versatile wine.
Territory and wine style
Production takes place in Montalcino, on the Sant’Angelo hill, positioned facing south at an average altitude of 250 meters above sea level. This context helps enhance the ripening of Sangiovese, a grape historically linked to the territory and known in Montalcino also as Brunello. The wine thus expresses the character of the denomination with a rich yet accessible profile, supported by freshness and a well-measured tannic structure. The vinification involves fermentation on the skins in steel with controlled temperature, a setting that favors a delicate extraction of color and tannin.
Tasting notes
In the glass, it presents an intense ruby red, enriched by violet reflections. On the nose, it offers a wide and complex bouquet, with hints of cherry, small red fruits in jam, spices, and light toasting notes. On the palate, it is warm, full-bodied, and well-structured, yet without sacrificing drinkability. The tannins are soft and ripe, while the typical freshness of Sangiovese balances the sip and accompanies a long, fruity, and pleasant finish. Aging in Slavonian oak barrels, with part of the wine in tonneaux and concrete, helps define a balanced and refined whole.
Recommended pairings
The Rosso di Montalcino DOC 2022 Bio Col d'Orcia pairs naturally with flavorful first courses, pici with ragù, lasagna, grilled red meats, roasts, noble poultry, and dishes with mushrooms. Its structure and freshness also make it suitable for dishes from Tuscan cuisine, such as stewed wild boar or pappardelle with meat sauce. It is a red that enhances the table without overpowering the flavors.
Serving temperature
It is recommended to serve the Rosso di Montalcino DOC 2022 Bio Col d'Orcia at a temperature between 16 and 18°C. If opened shortly before serving, it can benefit from a few minutes of oxygenation in the glass or decanter, allowing it to express its aromatic profile and fruity component at its best.
