Mastrojanni MASTROJANNI Rosso di Montalcino 2019

Description

Mastrojanni’s Rosso di Montalcino spends 6-7 months in Allier oak barrels and is then refined in the bottle before being placed on the market.

The nose offers notes of red fruit, cherries and plums, with a tannic entry in the mouth and a very long, persistent and savory finish. A little Brunello that will have its say for a long time to come

Mastrojanni is located in Castelnuovo dell’Abate, in the south-eastern corner of Montalcino, in the province of Siena. The soil gives great character to the Sangiovese of this historic estate. The soils are rich in gravel, clay, limestone and sandstone. Mastrojanni covers over 90 hectares, 25 of which are vineyards. The hectares dedicated to Brunello di Montalcino are 14, with vineyards often over 35 years of age. The height varies from 150 meters to 420 meters above sea level.
