Rosso di Montalcino

Vini Lazzeretti

A young, vibrant, and approachable wine.

Intense ruby red with violet reflections, a fruity profile with floral hints, and vegetal notes. Ideal paired with traditional Tuscan dishes. The Lazzeretti Rosso di Montalcino is a versatile, gastronomic wine. It pairs perfectly with Tuscan cured meats, pasta e fagioli, porcini mushroom risotto, and roasted meats. It’s also an excellent match for semi-aged cheeses, particularly Pecorino di Pienza.
