Rosso di Montalcino is made from 100% Sangiovese grown in the same delineated region as Brunello di Montalcino. Highly recommend. | | | | | | |

We tasted all the varietals they had and ultimately decided on Cabernet Sauvignon (real original, I know) and Sangiovese (the Italian varietal that makes wines such as Chianti or Brunello).
