Descrizione

The Sangiovese IGT from Ronchi di Castelluccio displays a sober and immediate profile, aimed at those seeking a characterful red without fuss. In the glass it shows a medium-intensity ruby color; on the nose there are hints of fresh red fruit, light floral notes and a mineral touch. The temperament is balanced: lively acidity and moderate tannins support the sip without weighing it down, returning a smooth, pleasant mouthful. The structure allows it to be enjoyed young but also to accompany more substantial dishes.

It pairs easily with simple Italian dishes: tomato-based pastas, bean soups, white meats and semi-firm cheeses. It can also accompany light grills and mushroom-based dishes. Serve at around 16–18 °C and briefly decant if you wish to open up the aromas. It is offered as a label to be consumed in the short–medium term; store in a cool, protected place to avoid altering its characteristics.

Winery history

Founded in 1974 by filmmaker/intellectual Gian Vittorio Baldi, the estate was prominent in the 1970s–1990s; acquired in 2020 by the Rametta brothers who reinstated single‑'ronco' vinification. ([ronchidicastelluccio.com](https://ronchidicastelluccio.com/chi-siamo/))

Production philosophy

Single‑cru work (micro‑vinifications), vineyard management with organic practices (grass cover, treatments limited to copper and sulfur), very low yields and ageing in lightly toasted French barriques (Allier, Vosges, Tronçais).
