Tasting Note

Oak and woodsy underbrush aromas take centre stage in this Montepulciano blend with signature Sangiovese fruitiness. The palate shows blackberry flavours, warm ripe plums and berries layered with subtle vanilla and espresso notes in the finish.


Producer

The history of the Saladini Pilastri dynasty dates back to the beginning of the year 1000 being a noble family from Ascoli. The estate was originally granted by the Pope to the family for their help during the crusades. Wine production began on the estate three hundred years ago and to this day Saladini Pilastri combines historical local tradition with modern technology.


Winemaking

The hillside vineyards are located on 320 hectares of rich limestone soil in Monteprandone and Spinetoli located in the Rosso Piceno and Falerio DOC zones. The sea breezes play a massive part in cooling the vineyards and olive groves, all of which are certified organic. Alcoholic fermentation of the grapes takes place in stainless steel tanks frequent pumping over to extract colour and flavour from the grape skins. This is followed by malolactic fermentation in concrete tanks to soften natural acidity and enhance mouthfeel. Ageing in used wood casks for at least 4 months and depth and subtle 

Fun Fact

Saladini Pilastri was Italy’s first, certified organic winery in 1996.


Food pairing

An ideal partner for rich Italian stews, braised meat dishes and roast game as well as ragu based pasta sauces.
