In the Glass
The StoryRosso di Montalcino offers a view of the same Sangiovese country that produces Brunello, with a more immediate, generous expression.
The Producer
La Fiorita is a Montalcino estate associated with Natalie Oliveros, producing Rosso and Brunello from its Sangiovese vineyards.
Place & Terroir
The hills of Montalcino bring altitude, changing exposures and long ripening seasons to Sangiovese; the Rosso expression offers a more immediate encounter with the estate’s fruit.
Perfect PairingsGrilled beef, braised lamb, wild mushroom pasta or aged cheeses.
Serve around 16–18°C; decant if the wine seems closed.
Worth KnowingRosso di Montalcino uses the same principal grape as Brunello, but is released younger and is generally intended to be approached sooner.
