MonteRosola Corpo Notte 2018

Hailing from the MonteRosola estate in Volterra, Tuscany, this sophisticated red is a classic Super Tuscan blend. The Corpo Notte is predominantly crafted from Merlot and Sangiovese grapes, with a touch of Cabernet Franc, offering a unique complexity. It benefits from the estate's high-altitude position and mineral-rich soils.

A rich, deep ruby colour, the wine offers an intriguing bouquet of dark cherry, plum, sweet spice, and a hint of vanilla. The palate is full-bodied and velvety, showcasing layered fruit with wonderfully soft, polished tannins and a persistent, elegant finish.

This wine is perfect for special occasions and pairs exceptionally well with rich, slow-cooked dishes, such as braised lamb shanks, oxtail ragu, or aged Parmesan cheese. While specific awards for the 2018 vintage are not widely published, the previous vintages have been highly decorated, affirming its quality.
