The Máté family wine estate nestles on two private hills on the sea-breeze ventilated side of Montalcino. A Roman vineyard 2,000 years ago, the seven campi of marvelously varied terroir totaling 7 hectares are surrounded by Mediterranean woods, herbs and wild fruit. The yields are kept extremely low by three annual green prunings to concentrate flavors and profumes. In the Máté vineyards and winery, no effort is spared to yield wines of great refinement, replete with unforgettable flavors.

A core of bright cherry awaits in this fragrant red. Elegant, with strawberry, rose, mineral, and tobacco adding detail, there is no shortage of structure, afforded by the vivid acidity and resonant tannins. Finishes balanced and long. .
