๐ฟ Monticino Rosso S Sangiovese 2023 Dry Red wine is Made from 100% Sangiovese, the wine comes from the Imola area around Piratello and Montecatone. Grapes are hand-picked and carefully selected. Skin maceration lasts approximately three weeks, with fermentation in temperature-controlled steel tanks, followed by at least three months of bottle refinement before release. This approach supports the fruit-led style and gives the wine time to settle before it reaches your glass.
๐ฝ๏ธ Try it with tagliatelle al ragรน, pasta with hearty sauces, grilled meats, charcuterie or firm, moderately aged cheeses. Truffle pasta is another appealing match. Serve at 16โ18ยฐC in a red-wine glass, and allow a little space in the glass to swirl and enjoy the aromas. Build the meal around your favourite savoury dish and let this Romagna red accompany the food and conversation.
