The Rosso Conero Riserva DOCG "Grosso Agontano" produced by Cantine Garofoli is an excellence in the world of Italian red wines. This wine comes from the Marche region, precisely from the cheerful territory of Conero, where the climatic conditions and clayey soil create the ideal environment for the cultivation of the Montepulciano grape.

The "Grosso Agontano" Riserva is a wine of great structure and complexity. It is produced with a careful selection of the best Montepulciano grapes, harvested by hand. The vinification occurs with a long maceration of the skins to optimally extract color and tannins. This is followed by aging in oak barrels for about 18 months and further refinement in the bottle that ensures a harmonious evolution and a broad and persistent aromatic bouquet.

On the nose, the Grosso Agontano unfolds a range of intense and enveloping aromas, from ripe red fruits like sour cherries and plums, to spicy notes of vanilla, tobacco, and a subtle hint of cocoa. On the palate, the wine displays a strong personality with well-integrated tannins and a robust yet harmonious structure. The balance between acidity and alcoholic warmth is impeccable, leading to a long and pleasantly persistent finish.

This wine is ideal paired with red meat dishes, game, and aged cheeses. It is also perfect to be savored on its own, as a moment of reflection. The Rosso Conero Riserva DOCG "Grosso Agontano" by Garofoli represents an excellent choice for lovers of powerful yet balanced wines, a real gem of Marche viticulture to discover and appreciate.
