The wine

La Serena 2018: The Soul of Montalcino's Sangiovese

I invite you on a sensory journey to the heart of Tuscany, where tradition meets passion. This Rosso di Montalcino 2018 from the La Serena estate is an open door to the elegance and complexity of Sangiovese, a revelation for your taste buds.

Montalcino, Land of Sangiovese

It is within the rolling landscapes of Montalcino, the cradle of exceptional wines, that this Rosso comes to life. The La Serena estate, with its history rooted in this generous land, carefully cultivates the region's king grape: Sangiovese. Each cluster is selected with particular attention during the late September harvest, guaranteeing the quality of this future nectar. It is the fruit of expertise that respects the terroir and enhances the grape's expression.

After meticulous destemming, the grapes ferment in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, a method that preserves the purity of the aromas. This is followed by maceration on the skins, essential for extracting color and tannins. The wine then benefits from 6 to 12 months of aging, partly in wood, followed by bottle refinement that gives it its maturity. You will discover a ruby red color, brilliant and luminous, inviting you to taste. On the nose, this Rosso di Montalcino offers a rich and seductive bouquet, where notes of red fruits mingle with floral touches, enhanced by a hint of spice. On the palate, it reveals an aromatic, balsamic intensity, with tannins that are present but balanced by vibrant acidity. It is a wine that, despite its youth compared to its big brother Brunello, already possesses remarkable complexity.

Tuscan Pairings and Shared Moments

This Rosso di Montalcino is an ideal companion for your meals. I particularly recommend it with red meats, whether a flavorful roast or a grilled dish. It also pairs wonderfully with aged cheeses, where its tannins and acidity will balance the flavors. Feel free to serve it with typical Tuscan cuisine dishes, such as pasta al ragù or ribollita, for an authentically Italian experience. It is a wine suited to moments of conviviality, a dinner among friends or a family meal, where it will bring a touch of elegance and warmth. Let yourself be carried away by this wine that so perfectly embodies the spirit of Tuscany.

The late September harvest and fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks preserve the expression of Sangiovese here, followed by 6 to 12 months of aging, partly in wood. A Rosso di Montalcino that plays on freshness and precision rather than the power of Brunello.
