Why shop with us?
Castello di Collemassari’s Rigoleto Montecucco Rosso 2023 is a fresh, fruit-led expression of southern Tuscany, pairing Sangiovese with Ciliegiolo and Montepulciano. Its lively red-fruit character, gentle oak influence and silky tannins make it an inviting choice for the table. Collemassari’s reputation was recognised when it was named Winery of the Year by Gambero Rosso in 2014.
Tasting Notes
The nose offers fresh red berries, cherry and raspberry, with hints of warm spice and fine mineral notes. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and juicy, with lively fruit, silky tannins and subtle oak adding depth without masking the grapes’ character. No specific appearance or drinking window is provided; enjoy it while its fresh fruit is prominent.
Production
The vineyards sit around 300 metres above sea level, where a light sea breeze helps preserve freshness and finesse. The blend is 70% Sangiovese, 15% Ciliegiolo and 15% Montepulciano. The wine ferments in stainless steel to retain varietal character, while half is subsequently matured in oak for added harmony and complexity. Harvesting methods are not specified.
Food & Serving
Pair with veal, grilled poultry, mushroom risotto or mature cheeses. Serve lightly cool, around 16–18°C, to highlight its freshness. A short, gentle decant can help open the wine, though it should be enjoyable without one.
Producer
Castello di Collemassari is a Tuscan estate whose work has earned recognition from Gambero Rosso, which named it Winery of the Year in 2014. The award reflects the producer’s standing in the region and its commitment to expressive wines rooted in local terroir.
