Castello Banfi Rosso di Montalcino is a wine of noble origins and impressive original thinking. Made from 100% select Sangiovese clones, Rosso di Montalcino is considered Brunello's younger sibling.
Rosso di Montalcino is aged less than its elder counterpart - 12 months in wood (half in French oak barrique and half in Slavonian oak casks) followed by at least 6 months in the bottle before release. It is deep ruby-red in color with a dry, round, velvety taste and generous body - characteristics similar to those desired in a great Brunello.
Castello Banfi Rosso di Montalcino is an outstanding companion to veal, red meats and cheeses.
"A modern Montalcino red, this has straight-on flavors of ripe plums. It stays rich through the finish, the fruit balanced by persistent tannins. A succulent wine to decant for braised oxtail. "
