Grapes: 100% Sangiovese
From the hills of Montalcino, Palazzo works with estate vineyards and a traditional, low-intervention approach to highlight the clarity and structure of Sangiovese. Their Rosso offers a more immediate expression of the estate’s style — approachable, but still rooted in place.
In the great tradition of Montalcino, this is truly a “baby Brunello.” The organically farmed estate plots used for the Rosso are determined by taste every year. The wine is aged 12-15 months in large Slavonian oak casks before determining which parcels are destined for this Rosso versus Brunello. The structure is that of a younger wine: simple and fresh with hints fruit on the nose. The fruity aromas carry over to the palate, making for an elegant and delicious wine for Brunello lovers on a budget.
Bright and expressive, it shows notes of red cherry, plum, and violet, with subtle hints of spice and earth. The palate is lively and medium-bodied, with fine tannins and fresh acidity carrying through a clean, balanced finish. A natural match for pasta with tomato-based sauces, grilled meats, or simple Italian fare.
