Sangiovese Romagna Superiore Sigismondo DOC - Le Rocche Malatestiane

Immediately appealing, this Sangiovese shows a frank, well-defined character: ripe red fruits, cherry and dark plum, with a hint of herbal notes and pepper that extend the profile. The texture is lean but assertive, supported by lively acidity that gives freshness and a clean line, while the tannins are smooth yet present, providing structure without weighing it down. In the glass there are also light sensations of forest floor and a subtle balsamic note that frames the fruit, adding complexity. The color is medium ruby with luminous highlights.

The sip runs agile and balanced, with a pleasant persistence that recalls fruit and light spices; it suits both everyday meals and more savory dishes. Drinkable now, it still has a good ability to accompany structured dishes without overpowering them. Excellent with ragù pasta, grilled meats, cured meats and aged cheeses; recommended to serve at around 16–18 °C to appreciate its tension and depth. A straightforward, immediate expression that interprets Sangiovese with balance and charm.
