Rosso Di Montalcino Doc - Loacker

The organically produced Rosso Di Montalcino DOC from Loacker glides into the glass with a bright ruby red color. After the first swirl, this red wine reveals a perfect balance, as it does not appear watery nor syrupy or liqueur-like on the glass walls. On the nose, this Loacker red wine presents all sorts of blackberries, mulberries, blackcurrants, and blueberries.

This red from Loacker is just right for all wine lovers who prefer as little residual sweetness in their wine as possible. At the same time, it never appears meager or brittle, as one would naturally expect from a wine in this price range. On the palate, this well-balanced red wine is characterized by an incredibly velvety texture. Thanks to its lively acidity, the Rosso Di Montalcino DOC appears wonderfully fresh and vibrant on the palate. On the finish, this youthful wine from the Tuscany winegrowing region delights with a lovely length. Again, nuances of blackberry and blueberry become apparent.

Vinification of the Rosso Di Montalcino DOC from Loacker

The balanced Rosso Di Montalcino DOC from Italy is a single-varietal wine, organically vinified from the Sangiovese grape variety. After the grape harvest, the grapes are quickly brought to the winery. There they are sorted and gently crushed. Fermentation then takes place in large wooden vats at controlled temperatures. After the end of fermentation, the elegant Rosso Di Montalcino DOC is aged for several more months in oak barrels. Once the wine is finished, the Rosso Di Montalcino DOC is carefully harmonized.
