The colour is bright ruby red. To the nose La Torre Rosso di Montalcino displays fresh cassis and wild cherry. On the palate, the same fruity characteristics are framed by a balanced structure with excellent texture and acidic tension.

La Torre

The La Torre winery was founded in 1976 by Giuseppe Ananìa who purchased the La Torre estate from the Ciacci family of Montalcino. Until a few years earlier the estate had been worked as a farm by sharecroppers with livestock cherry trees wheat and mixed olive trees and vines. While Giuseppe planted the first vineyard two and a half hectares in area in 1976 it was up to his son Luigi to expand it in 1999 by another three hectares. Now the vineyard totals about five and a half hectares and surrounds the house on the south and west.
