More questions
Sangiovese di Romagna Superiore "S" DOC from Monticino Rosso is a red wine that offers a balanced expression of the Sangiovese grape in the Romagna context. Medium-bodied, it shows a clear ruby color and an aromatic profile marked by fresh and ripe red fruits, light floral notes and subtle spicy nuances. On the palate it delivers balanced structure, measured tannins and lively acidity that supports freshness; the drinking experience is smooth, with pleasant persistence and a clean finish that invites another sip.
Versatile at the table, it pairs easily with everyday dishes such as pasta with not-too-heavy ragù, rustic pizza, cured meats and medium-mature cheeses, as well as simply prepared white and red meats. Recommended serving temperature is around 16–18 °C and opening shortly before serving helps release the aromas. It is a suitable choice for those seeking a territorial, restrained and enjoyable Sangiovese for informal occasions.

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.
