Castello di Monastero Sangiovese 2006

The most famous and most noble Tuscan grape is Sangiovese - used to make all the most important wines, either "pure" or in combination with other grape varieties. The Castello di Monastero vineyards at Castelnuovo Berardenga produce Sangiovese grapes vinified "pure" - leaving the must on the skins for ten–twelve days and refining the wine for several months in small oak barrels. This wine has a rather intense ruby red color and an impressive bouquet with hints of ripe cherries. The warm, dry and well-balanced taste means that this wine is an ideal accompaniment for various meat, fish, pasta and rice dishes.
