- Description
The name "Ronco dei Ciliegi" means "Vineyard of the Cherry Trees" - a nod to the two large, old cherry trees found by the vineyard. The Sangiovese grapes for this wine are planted on south-eastern facing slopes for maximum sun exposure and are harvested during the first week of October. The wine is fermented in stainless steel tanks and then aged in French oak for 12 months.
Deep ruby red leaning towards garnet in color, with notes of cherries and juniper flowers. On the palate, the wine is rich and spicy with a long finish.
Pair with roasted red meats, poultry and game
