Rosso di Montalcino Campo ai Sassi is produced at the Frescobaldi CastelGiocondo estate, in the municipality of Montalcino, Siena.

It is made exclusively from Sangiovese grapes, harvested and selected entirely by hand. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, with 16 days of maceration in contact with the skins. After malolactic fermentation, the wine matures for 8 months partly in steel and partly in Slavonian oak barrels, followed by a 4-month period of bottle aging.

It presents a bright ruby red color, with slight purplish hues. The nose opens with a complex and rich bouquet, with notes of small red fruits and floral hints. On the palate, it is full-bodied and balanced, with a very long finish and fruity undertones in the aftertaste.

Perfect for accompanying first courses with meat ragù, it is ideal paired with game and red meats.
