Deep ruby red with slight violet hues. Delicate and with good intensity, elegant complexity with hints of pepper, cinnamon and tobacco. Background notes of red-fruit jam and violet. A wine with solid structure and superb concentration, it evolves with fresh acidity; austere, balanced tannins with a fruity and slightly mineral finish.
Ideal pairings include T-bone steak, BBQ with spicy sauce, beef fillet with balsamic condiment and extra virgin olive oil, and roast beef with roast potatoes.

A rich, layered red with ripe-berry, dark-chocolate and walnut aromas and flavors. Full-bodied and intense. Flavorful finish. Better in a year or two.

Lungarotti's most popular wine, this Umbrian Chianti-style blend has a pretty straightforward violet and cherry aroma, followed by grainy tannins and intense, tangy cherry then strawberry and floral notes. There's a touch of chocolate on the very fresh, menthol finish. Also try the estate's 100% single-vineyard Sangiovese, Rubesco Vigna Monticchio Riserva.
