Tasting Notes

Ruby red with light shades of purple. Complex nose with hints of crunchy blackberries, raspberries and elegant touches of sweet spices, closing on a balsamic note. In the mouth it has great impact with a softness diluted by a good acidity and delicate tannins before ending in a fruity, fresh finish. It is the ideal partner for charcuterie, pasta and rice dishes with meat, as well as for all red and white meats and for semi-mature cheeses.

The Producer

Castello Romitorio

Perched on the highest hill in the rugged Northwest corner of Montalcino, Castello di Romitorio stands like a guardian over the Brunello DOCG zone. One of the most famous living artists, Sandro Chia, acquired the property in 1984. The purchase included the Castello Romitorio farm which was re-deditcated to the production of Montalcino DOCs. Today Sandro’s son Filippo Chia is the owner and winemaker of the estate. Sandro Chia, a renowned painter and sculptor continues to design all the labels and is still an active artist. The Romitorio vineyards are small plots of land amongst hectares of virgin woods, interspersed with ponds and streams of crystal clear water. They surround the Castle on a hill that, coming down from Monte Amiato towards Siena, runs parallel with the Montalcino slopes. A completely unspoiled landscape with fossil rich galestro, clay, and albarese soil.
