Antonio Sanguineti, Rosso di Montalcino D.O.C.
(ROH-so dee mohn-tahl-CHEE-no)

 

Tasting Notes: This classic “little brother” of Brunello, Rosso di Montalcino, is one of the great values of the Italian wine world. Bright, ripe cherry, black pepper, dark wisps of smoked meat, and dried cranberry make this a luscious wine that keeps opening and opening. A perfect introduction to the world-class wines of Montalcino.
