MONTEFALCO ROSSO DOC

MONTEFALCO ROSSO

DOC

ORGANIC WINE

The blend of Umbrian red graps makes this particularly structured wine enjoyable and balanced. The aging in oak, at least 12 months, leaves pleasant fruity notes and an intense ruby red color.

It can be served with red meat but also with rich first dishes.

Serve at 18°C.
