Castelrapiti Montellori Farm 1996

From the Fattoria Montellori winery, a farm nestled in the Tuscan hills, this 1996 Castelrapiti is a wine that embodies the beauty and complexity of long maturation. Made from a blend of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Merlot grapes, with an alcohol content of 13.5%, the wine ages in oak barrels. It offers a complex bouquet of black cherry in brandy, leather, tobacco, and tertiary notes. On the palate, it is soft and enveloping, with smooth tannins and a long, harmonious finish. It pairs perfectly with roasts, game, and aged cheeses.
