Description

Let me introduce you to a wine that embodies the rustic charm and sun-drenched hills of Tuscany: the San Salvagio Rosso di Montepulciano. Crafted with passion and respect for tradition by the San Salvagio winery, this red wine is a true reflection of its terroir. San Salvagio, nestled in the heart of Tuscany, is a family-run winery that prides itself on sustainable practices and minimal intervention in the winemaking process. Their commitment to quality shines through in every bottle, and the Rosso di Montepulciano is no exception.

This Rosso di Montepulciano is primarily made from Sangiovese grapes, the iconic varietal of Tuscany, with possibly a small addition of other indigenous grapes, the wine offers a vibrant and expressive profile. On the nose, you'll be greeted with aromas of ripe cherries, plums, and a hint of earthy spice. The palate is equally inviting, with flavors of juicy red fruit, a touch of leather, and a subtle herbaceous note. Its medium body, balanced acidity, and smooth tannins make it incredibly approachable and easy to enjoy. The finish is clean and lingering, leaving you with a pleasant warmth and a desire for another sip.

This versatile wine is a fantastic companion to a wide range of dishes. Its bright acidity and fruit-forward character make it an excellent match for classic Italian fare such as pasta with tomato-based sauces, pizza, and grilled vegetables. It also pairs beautifully with roasted chicken, pork, or lamb, as well as hard cheeses like Pecorino or Parmesan. For a truly authentic Tuscan experience, try it with a hearty bowl of ribollita, a traditional bread and vegetable soup. The serving temperature is 16°C.

I invite you to experience the true essence of Tuscany with the San Salvagio Rosso di Montepulciano. It's a wine that will transport you to the rolling hills and sun-kissed vineyards of this beautiful region with every sip.
