The Character

Overall Invigorating and sensuous
Aromas Mascara cherry, violet and pomegranate with savory notes of sage and soy
Mouthfeel Dense and structured with firm, fine tannins
Tasting Notes "Intense black cherry, blackberry, violet and mineral aromas and flavors are the hallmarks of this taut, well-delineated red. Securely bound by the resonant structure, its refined tannins are assertive and beautifully integrated. The terrific aftertaste picks up elements of wild herbs, and this is amazingly long. A standout for the vintage." --Bruce Sanderson
Awards 96pts Wine Advocate, 95pts Falstaff, 95pts Wine Spectator

About Castello Romitorio

Producer Story

Sandro Chia may have purchased the abandoned castle for which this estate is named in 1984, yet its foundation can be dated back over a millenia to the romans. The castle stood through state disputes, the turbulent middle ages, and Italy's reunification before Chia partnered with his friend Franco Martini, a predominant expert in Brunello and the cellar master. Their sons, Filippo and Stefano, now work at the winery and represent the coming generation. This is Avant Garde style melded with rich history.
