Col d'Orcia Rosso di Montalcino

Col d'Orcia Rosso di Montalcino is a high-quality red wine produced by Col d'Orcia, a historic winery located in the heart of Montalcino, Tuscany. The wine is made using Sangiovese grapes grown in the estate's vineyards, which are situated at an altitude of 150-450 meters above sea level on the slopes of Mount Amiata. The vineyards' soil is rich in minerals and well-drained, resulting in wines with great complexity and depth of flavor. The winemaking process involves fermentation in stainless steel tanks, followed by 12 months of aging in large oak casks, which impart subtle hints of vanilla and spice to the wine. The resulting wine is elegant and refined, with aromas of red cherry, violets, and spice, and a medium-bodied palate with silky tannins and a long, persistent finish. The wine is a great expression of the Montalcino appellation's terroir and Col d'Orcia's commitment to producing high-quality wines that reflect the region's traditions and history.
