Montefili Rosato IGT 2019 from Vecchie Terre di Montefili in the hills of Panzano, Tuscany is a quietly serious Sangiovese rosato with real structure, bright fruit and that high‑altitude, above‑the‑clouds freshness. This Montefili Rosato Toscana IGT pours a luminous pale cherry pink and offers redcurrant, wild strawberry, sour cherry and pomegranate, along with rose petals, blood orange and a hint of Mediterranean herbs.

On the palate, Montefili Rosato IGT 2019 is dry, delicately fruity and pleasantly tangy, showing crunchy red berries, citrus and a fine, savoury edge. There’s good finesse and persistence – a clear, linear rosato style that balances vibrant acidity with gentle Sangiovese grip, making it more than just a simple summer quaffer.

Food‑wise, this Toscana Rosato is excellent with antipasti, tomato‑based pasta, grilled vegetables and lighter meats such as grilled chicken or pork, where its sour cherry brightness and tang keep everything lifted. It also works with medium‑aged Italian cheeses and charcuterie, showing enough structure and savoury depth to hold its own at the table.
