2013 was a fantastic vintage for Tenutarossa, as we can see from this powerful, rich, and complex wine, made with 100% Montepulciano grapes from 40 year sold vines. The grapes are picked up during the third decade of October, and then pressed and fermented for 20 days. After a storage of 18 months in steel tanks to facilitate the decantation, the wine ages for about 18 - 22 months in 20 hl oak barrels. Visually, the wine has a rich red color, which is both bold and beautiful. This amazing wine has a complex bouquet of ripe red fruit and dark berries, combined with an earthy intrigue, framed by hints of toasty oak, tobacco spices, vanilla and cinnamon. It is well-rounded with a good, soft structure and a long, full finish where the richness and complexity dominate. It is a perfect pairing with lasagne, braised or grilled red meats, wild game, strongly seasoned or herbal cheeses, and sausage.The bottle design called Fortuna, which really suits this elegant wine!
