Colle Massari Montecucco Rosso Riserva doc. 2019 1,5l

Montecucco Rosso Riserva from Colle Massari is an organically certified blend of sangiovese, ciliegiolo and cabernet sauvignon grown on elevated sites between the Maremma coast and Monte Amiata. Vines rooted in poor, stony soils yield naturally low crops that are harvested by hand. After fermentation the wine spends an extended period in oak, gaining depth and a velvety texture. The bouquet offers blackberry, blueberry and ripe cherry alongside Mediterranean herbs, liquorice, tobacco and dark chocolate. On the palate Montecucco Rosso Riserva is full-bodied, concentrated and harmonious, with ripe, well-knit tannins and refreshing acidity. Its long, spicy, earth-tinged finish makes it a superb choice for slow-cooked meats, rich pasta dishes, lamb and game.

The documented ageing in small oak barrels rounds out the structure and supports the dark fruit.

Colle Massari

In the wilder side of Tuscany, in Toscana’s Maremma where the hills look toward the cooling mass of Monte Amiata, Colle Massari has been redefining Montecucco since 1998. Founded by the Tipa‑Bertarelli family in the very year the DOC was born, the estate was conceived as a landscape project—research, regeneration and biodiversity, with Sangiovese at its genetic core....
