{"product_id":"2024-quercecchio-rosso-di-montalcino-1","title":"2024 Quercecchio, Rosso di Montalcino","description":"\u003cp\u003eQuercecchio is a small, family-run estate in the Tavernelle area of southern Montalcino, where the vineyards share the hillsides with natural forest and Mediterranean scrub. The soils here are rich in galestro, a crumbly clay-shale, mixed with gravel. The estate farms its own Sangiovese Grosso and works in a traditional, low-intervention style that lets the warm, generous, spicy character of southern Montalcino come through.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2024 Rosso di Montalcino is the estate's fresher, earlier-drinking counterpart to its Brunello. The grapes are hand-harvested and fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel, then rest for 6 to 12 months in large, neutral Slavonian oak botti. These big old casks add texture without imposing wood flavor, so the wine stays focused on pure red fruit and savory Tuscan detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy You'll Love It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClassic, food-friendly Tuscan Sangiovese with energy and polish, made for the dinner table.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe nose opens with wild red cherry and red plum, lifted by dried oregano and a twist of orange zest.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOn the palate, bright natural acidity carries the fruit, with a savory thread of leather underneath.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFine, dusty tannins frame a clean, mouthwatering finish.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA wine that works across a whole week of dinners, from pasta night to the Sunday roast.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow To Serve It\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eServe at cool room temperature, between 60°F and 63°F.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDecant for about 30 minutes to let the cherry fruit and herbal notes open up.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePour into Burgundy stems to gather its high-toned aromatics.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePair with wild boar ragù over pappardelle, herb-roasted pork loin, a Florentine-style bistecca, or a wedge of aged Pecorino Toscano.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SommSelect","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48024059576374,"sku":"SOMM2610-QRC24RDM-750","price":34.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/3628\/8822\/files\/2024Quercecchio_RossodiMontalcino_1.png?v=1791486205","url":"https:\/\/sommselect.com\/products\/2024-quercecchio-rosso-di-montalcino-1","provider":"SommSelect","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
