Sant'Antimo Rosso

Born from the masterful blend of equal parts Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese, enriched with Petit Verdot and Colorino, this red is a wine of rare elegance. The vineyards, nestled on the southeastern slope of Montalcino at an altitude of 400 meters, strike their roots into galestro soils that bestow both character and finesse.
The aging process proceeds with aristocratic patience: six months in 500-liter French oak tonneaux and four months in large Slavonian oak casks, followed by a six-month rest in the bottle before its release.

The glass reveals a purple-red hue with violet undertones, where blackcurrant and ripe cherry dialogue with notes of violet and sweet tobacco. On the palate, a noble structure unfolds, supported by silky and perfectly integrated tannins that lead toward a long, savory finish, rich with echoes of ripe red fruit.
The Sant’Antimo Rosso by Tenuta Friggiali is destined for the most refined tables—the ideal companion for roasts, game, and haute cuisine meat dishes.
