Uccelliera Rosso di Montalcino is 100% Sangiovese grape and crafted under the watchful eye of Andrea Cortonesi who practices organic farming methods in his vineyards. Once you start to pour the wine, aromas of black cherry and strawberry rise up to greet you while showing off an impeccable ruby color in the glass. Uccelliera wines are rich, layered and beautifully textured with flavors of red cherry and a touch of black pepper that gives the wine some very defined spice. The Uccelliera Rosso boasts a refined style and after the first sip there is no arguing of the wine’s opulence. Located high on a hill just south of Florence, the village of Montalcino is surrounded by vineyards where the Sangiovese grape thrives in the warm dry days and the cool breezy night. Different from its big brother – Brunello di Montalcino which age for four years – Rosso di Montalcino wines are released after one year of aging.
