Montemelino is a wonderful estate overlooking lake Trasimeno, in Umbria. The closeness to the lake influences the microclimate in the vineyards. Fresh air to temper the summer heat, mild air to contrast the wines chills of the close-by Appenine mountains. This temperature range brings about the richness in the grapes flavours, and is essential for wines of character.
Traditional wine and olive oil making with the aid of the latest technology bring out the best of the grapes in these lands, just a few kilometres from renowned Tuscan town Cortona.
This rosé from Ciliegiolo grapes is elegant, rich, dry and always pleasant to the palate, delivering the unique notes of fresh red cherry so typical of this varietal. This wine is perfect for your summer meals, whatever they may be, fish, meet, vegetables... great with Oriental cuisine, too, or as an aperitif. Versatile, always pleasant, great value for money!
