Description

Crafted by Fattoria Pulcino di Ercolani Sergio, this Rosso di Montepulciano is a delightful expression of Tuscany's winemaking heritage. Born from Sangiovese grapes grown in the heart of the region, this wine benefits from the area's favourable climate and traditional winemaking methods. The vineyards, carefully managed, yield grapes that express the unique terroir of Montepulciano. This 2020 vintage underwent a brief fermentation before being aged in stainless steel. This careful process helps to retain the vibrant red color and the fruity aromatics that are characteristic of this wine. The decision to age in stainless steel rather than oak allows the pure expression of the Sangiovese grape to shine through. The wine presents a youthful yet structured profile. On the palate, you'll discover a dry, harmonious blend of red fruit notes, especially red cherry, complemented by an underlying earthy minerality. Its balanced acidity and soft tannins make it incredibly approachable and versatile. The Fattoria Pulcino Rosso di Montepulciano is a perfect companion for a wide array of dishes. Its structure and flavour profile make it an excellent match for the traditional Italian cuisine. Serve it with classic Tuscan fare, such as cured meats and cheeses, simple pasta dishes, or grilled white meats. Ideally served at a temperature between 16° and 18° Celsius, a brief decanting will help to avoid the light natural deposit. Enjoy this authentic taste of Tuscany. The blend of tradition and quality makes it a truly memorable wine, sure to impress both connoisseurs and casual enthusiasts alike. Cheers to good taste and the art of Italian winemaking!
