This Rosso Piceno hails from Rio Maggio’s oldest vineyard. Crafted with classic Bordeaux vinification techniques, it’s a structured and generous wine, pairing the intensity of Montepulciano with the complexity of Sangiovese. This is a structured and agreeable wine, with good complexity, a well-proportioned body and enveloping final. It has a beautiful ruby red color
