Bright and beautifully balanced, this Rosso di Montalcino shows the vibrant character of Sangiovese grown in the hills of Montalcino. Aromas of fresh cherry, raspberry, and dried rose lead into a lively palate layered with red plum, cranberry, and subtle notes of spice and earth. Silky tannins and refreshing acidity give the wine energy and structure, while the finish remains smooth, elegant, and wonderfully food-friendly. It captures the youthful charm of Montalcino with impressive depth and finesse.

Food Pairing
This wine pairs naturally with classic Italian dishes. Try it with pasta in tomato-based sauces, mushroom risotto, wood-fired pizza, or roasted chicken with herbs. It also works beautifully with grilled pork, sausage, or simple steak preparations. The bright acidity and savory character of Sangiovese make it especially versatile alongside aged cheeses, roasted vegetables, and rustic Tuscan cuisine.

History & Background
The estate behind this wine, Sesti, is located at the historic Castello di Argiano just outside Montalcino. Founded by Giuseppe “Giugi” Sesti, a scholar of astronomy who restored the ancient castle and vineyards in the late 20th century, the winery is now run with his daughter Elisa. The estate farms organically and follows traditional winemaking practices, focusing on elegance, balance, and a true reflection of the terroir. Their Rosso di Montalcino offers an approachable and youthful expression of the estate’s Sangiovese while maintaining the same craftsmanship that defines their renowned Brunello wines. 🍷
