Following years of attentive work in our vineyards, Castello Romitorio has released a new Rosso di Montalcino from the 2020 vintage called Colto. An extremely bright and vibrant wine with the potential for long-term cellaring, Colto is sourced from young and powerful vineyards planted deep in the pristine woods of northwest Montalcino. Produced in extremely small amounts (only 6000 bottles), the wine is aged in our cellar for 6 months in wood, 6 months in cement and 6 months in the bottle before being released. Colto is a glorious expression of Sangiovese from the region’s cooler northwestern climate.
