Sesta di Sopra Rosso di Montalcino is a distinguished red wine from the southern part of Montalcino, Italy. This wine benefits from the region's medium-textured, calcareous soil, which, combined with careful cultivation methods, ensures an optimal vegetative balance and controlled production. Harvested at the end of September, the grapes are meticulously preserved and vinified using a blend of traditional techniques and modern technology to extract the best color and tannins. The wine matures in French oak barriques before being aged in the bottle for three months. The result is a well-balanced wine with rich flavors and refined tannins, showcasing the elegance and tradition of the Montalcino appellation.
