Castello Romitorio Brio 2024

Castello Romitorio Brio 2024 is a fresh, expressive Sangiovese that captures the bright energy of southern Tuscany. Sourced mainly from the estate’s own vineyards in Scansano, it combines coastal influence, altitude, and volcanic soils to deliver a wine with vivid character and a clear sense of place.

Tasting Notes
Brio shows a lively ruby-red colour and an inviting, youthful brightness in the glass. The nose is typically lifted and aromatic, with notes of red cherries, wild berries, and floral herbs, framed by the savoury, mineral touch that Sangiovese can bring in this part of Tuscany. On the palate, it is fresh and supple, with crisp acidity, refined tannins, and a juicy core of red fruit. The volcanic soils and seaside breezes help shape a wine that feels vibrant rather than heavy, making it enjoyable in its youth while still having enough structure to develop gracefully over the next few years.

Production
Brio is made primarily from Sangiovese grown on the estate’s vineyards in Scansano, where gently rolling slopes, a south-west exposure, and rich volcanic soils create one of Tuscany’s most distinctive microclimates. At around 150 metres above sea level and only about 20 kilometres from the Tyrrhenian Sea, the vineyards benefit from cooling maritime influence that helps preserve freshness and aromatic precision. Harvesting and vinification details are not provided.

Food & Serving
This is a versatile red that works beautifully with Tuscan-style dishes, grilled chicken, roast pork, pasta with tomato-based sauces, mushroom risotto, and semi-aged cheeses. Serve it slightly cool, ideally around 16–18°C, to highlight its freshness and balance. Decanting is not essential, but a brief aeration can help bring out the wine’s aromatics if opened young.

Producer
Castello Romitorio is a respected Tuscan estate known for combining tradition, artistry, and a strong sense of terroir. Based in Montalcino and closely associated with high-quality Sangiovese expressions, the producer has earned a strong reputation for wines that are elegant, distinctive, and deeply rooted in their landscape. Brio reflects that philosophy in a more approachable, fresh style.
