San Giorgio Ciampoleto Rosso Di Montalcino
San Giorgio Ciampoleto Rosso di Montalcino is a vibrant, approachable expression of Sangiovese from the prestigious Montalcino region in Tuscany. Produced from younger vines and selected parcels surrounding the estate’s Brunello vineyards, it undergoes traditional fermentation and short aging in large oak casks or concrete to preserve freshness and fruit purity. Lighter and more immediate than Brunello, it offers bright red fruit, floral notes, soft tannins, and classic Tuscan savoriness. Versatile and food-friendly, it pairs beautifully with pasta al ragù, grilled meats, tomato-based dishes, charcuterie, or medium-aged cheeses.
