More questions
Sangiovese di Romagna DOC Riserva "Frutti Rossi" from Monticino Rosso presents a restrained profile: bright, clear ruby colour. On the nose there are aromas of red fruits — cherry and raspberry — with subtle floral hints and a slight earthy note that adds complexity. The aromatic intensity is measured, inviting tasting rather than imposing character.
On the palate it is balanced: lively acidity and present but well-integrated tannins support a medium-bodied frame, with fruit-driven echoes returning on the finish. The savoury element makes the sip convincing without excess; suitable for those who prefer a fresh, direct red with good persistence. Naturally pairs with hearty pasta, roasted meats and medium-aged cheeses; serve at a moderate temperature and, if desired, allow some time in the glass before serving. Appropriate for informal occasions and everyday tables.

The winery
Fattoria Monticino Rosso
Emilia‑Romagna (province of Bologna, municipality of Imola)Italy
Family-run winery founded in 1965 on the hills of Imola (BO), producing typical Emilia‑Romagna wines such as Sangiovese di Romagna and Albana.
The story
Founded in 1965 by Antonio Zeoli with the purchase of the Olmo estate and later the Monticino Rosso estate; management later passed to his sons (Luciano and Gianni Zeoli). The farm developed while maintaining its hill‑country identity on the Emilia–Romagna border.
Production philosophy
To showcase the territory and local varieties (Sangiovese, Albana, Pignoletto), family production on hillside vineyards; also produces low‑sulfite and no added‑sulfite bottlings.
Terroir and vineyards
Vineyards on the hills of Imola (Emilia–Romagna border), with historic estates named Olmo and Monticino Rosso (areas cited: Piratello, Montecatone). Hilly soils suited to Sangiovese and native varieties.
