Although already in Romagna, the winery finds its origin on the hills that kiss Imola, in the province of Bologna.

The Sangiovese "S" Romagna Superiore from Fattoria Monticino Rosso sees its grapes born in two particular crus of the estate: one, named after the winery, the other called Olmo. The soil, composed of a texture predominantly of red clays, allows for the production of a wine with a fine yet firm structure without ever betraying the nature of Sangiovese. Shortly after the beginning of the second half of September, the harvest begins, strictly manual, and with a careful selection of the grapes. Brought to the winery.these undergo a maceration on the skins for about three weeks at controlled temperature before proceeding to fermentation inside steel tanks. The process concludes with a bottle aging of 3 months.

With a ruby color and purple hues, it opens on the nose with a cherry in spirit and a well-ripened blackberry tied together by the finesse and elegance of black pepper and coffee. The timid scent of underbrush and violet betrays the parentage of the grape variety. On the palate the sip is tense yet cheerful integrated by perfectly integrated tannins and fine structure. Of intriguing harmony this Sangiovese is, as suggested by the letter on the label: sincere, straightforward, and cheeky, capable of being a faithful interpreter of a grape variety and a territory of romantic tradition.
