Monte Antico Rosso is a celebrated Italian red wine crafted by the renowned Monte Antico winery. This wine is a blend predominantly composed of Sangiovese, complemented by Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon, showcasing the classic varietal composition of Tuscany. The wine hails from the Tuscany region, known for its rolling hills and ideal climate for viticulture. Monte Antico Rosso is aged in oak barrels, which imparts a subtle complexity and depth to the wine. It exhibits a rich flavor profile with notes of ripe cherries, plums, and a hint of spice, balanced by a vibrant acidity and well-integrated tannins. This wine pairs beautifully with Italian cuisine, particularly pasta dishes with tomato-based sauces, grilled meats, and aged cheeses.

A Tuscan classic! Deep ruby color with garnet reflections,its elegant bouquet of leather, black cherries, licorice and plums preludes a medium to full-bodied palate where ripe red fruit, got de terroir, subtle notes of vanilla and violets harmonize and linger, interlacing with the soft tannins and silky texture. Firm backbone, perfect integration of acidity and fruit, well rounded, medium finish.
