Description

Uccelliera - Rosso di Montalcino is a vibrant and elegant red wine from the renowned Montalcino region in Tuscany, Italy. Produced by the esteemed Uccelliera estate, this wine is crafted from 100% Sangiovese Grosso grapes, the same variety used in their prestigious Brunello di Montalcino. Often considered the "younger brother" of Brunello, Rosso di Montalcino offers a more accessible, yet equally expressive, wine experience. It is known for its bright fruit flavors, balanced structure, and approachable style, making it a wonderful choice for both casual and refined occasions.
