synergy fine wines

Colored an intense, ruby red with garnet reflections, the Rosso di Montalcino has a finely intense nose with fragrant aromas of small, fresh fruits.  On the palate it is delicately dry with aromatic, long-lasting flavors.  

Alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel; malolactic fermentation is carried out in wood.  The wine is matured 11 months in large French-oak barrels called botti in Italian; after bottling it is cellared for rougly 7 months before release.

Mocali’s 2008 Rosso di Montalcino is one of the more generous, ripe Rossos in this vintage. Red cherries, herbs and sweet spices emerge from this pleasing mid-weight offering. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2012.
