WINE DESCRIPTION
Uccelliera Rosso di Montalcino is a premium red wine produced by Andrea Cortonesi, a renowned winemaker from Tuscany, Italy. The wine is made from Sangiovese grapes grown in the Montalcino appellation, known for its high-quality vineyards and ideal growing conditions. The vineyards are situated at an altitude of 350-450 meters above sea level, with soils rich in minerals and nutrients. The winemaking process involves traditional techniques, including fermentation in stainless steel tanks and aging in oak barrels for 12 months. The resulting wine is a medium-bodied, elegant red with notes of red fruit, spice, and a hint of earthiness.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Uccelliera Rosso di Montalcino is a beautiful expression of Sangiovese from the Montalcino region in Tuscany.Intense aromas of violets, cherries and baking spices are followed by flavors of ripe cherry, red currant, and a hint of white pepper. The tannins are soft, yet still present, and the finish is long and lingering. Enjoy this wine with grilled meats and vegetables.
