Tasting Notes: This vibrant rosato displays a deep, brilliant pink hue and opens with an expressive bouquet of wild strawberries, fresh cherries, and delicate spring blossoms. The palate is elegant and well-structured, offering a silky texture that balances juicy red fruit flavors with a clean, flinty minerality. It finishes with a refreshing snap of citrus zest and lingering hints of pomegranate, making it a sophisticated choice for pairing with Mediterranean seafood or summer salads.
Estate History: Located in the heart of Puglia’s Salento peninsula, Castello Monaci is centered around a majestic sixteenth-century castle and a sprawling estate that dates back to the era of the Knights of Malta. The property transitioned into a modern winemaking powerhouse while preserving its historic roots, featuring a unique cellar carved into white tuff stone to naturally regulate temperatures. Today, the estate is a leader in sustainable viticulture, focusing on indigenous varieties to showcase the sun-drenched terroir of southern Italy.
