The wine

Siro Pacenti: The Elegance of Montalcino's Sangiovese

Today I invite you to discover a gem from the heart of Tuscany, a wine that perfectly embodies the balance between power and finesse. This Rosso di Montalcino from the Siro Pacenti estate is a true expression of its terroir, a bottle that will transport you.

The Terroir of Montalcino by Siro Pacenti

Montalcino, this land blessed by the gods of wine, is the birthplace of this exceptional Sangiovese. The Siro Pacenti estate, with its passion and dedication, crafts wines there that reflect the soul of this prestigious appellation. This Rosso di Montalcino, made exclusively from the Sangiovese grape, is the fruit of careful winemaking, with fermentation in steel tanks and maceration on the skins that give it structure and depth.

After this crucial step, the wine ages for 12 months, refining its aromas and texture. In your glass, you will discover an intense red colour. On the nose, this 2020 vintage will offer you intense aromas of ripe red fruits, such as cherry and raspberry, enriched with nuances of sweet spices and a light touch of vanilla. On the palate, it reveals itself as well-structured, enveloping and persistent. The texture is seductive, supple yet supported by lively acidity and fine tannins, promising good ageing potential. The finish is long and satisfying, with an aftertaste that recalls the spicy notes perceived on the nose, complemented by earthy notes.

At the Table with the Rosso di Montalcino

This Rosso di Montalcino DOC from Siro Pacenti is an ideal companion for your meals. I particularly recommend it with grilled red meats, game or aged cheeses. It will also enhance traditional Tuscan dishes, bringing a touch of elegance to your table. Serve it at around 18°C to appreciate all its organoleptic qualities. Whether for a special occasion or simply for the pleasure of discovery, this wine is an invitation to savour the authenticity of Tuscany.

A small detail that gives the Siro Pacenti 2020 its character: fermentation in steel tanks, maceration on the skins, then 12 months of ageing. Serve it at around 18 °C with a cinghiale in umido, and let its spicy notes take their place.
