Rosso Cantina Margò 2022
ArtisanalThe Red Cantina Margò is a warm and enveloping red wine on the palate, made from Sangiovese grapes. After spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts and a long maceration of the must on the skins, the wine ages partly in steel and partly in wood, gaining balance and structure, and developing intense fruity and floral aromas. A perfect wine for barbecues with friends or to accompany a platter of cured meats and semi-aged cheeses.
The Rosso di Cantina Margò is a genuine bottle capable of combining intensity and dynamism, produced from pure Sangiovese. This grape variety was the first cultivated by winemaker Carlo Tabarrini, founder of Cantina Margò, who in 2008 found a half-hectare vineyard planted with Sangiovese, in a state of partial abandonment, deciding to rent it to dive into a viticultural adventure from scratch. From the very beginning, Carlo's goal was clear: to produce sincere wines without sophistication or invasive interventions.
Cantina Margò Rosso is a pure Sangiovese from vines aged between 25 and 50 years. The plants are cultivated according to the principles of organic and biodynamic agriculture on medium-textured soils mainly composed of clay, limestone, and marls. After manual harvesting, spontaneous alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, with a long maceration on the skins. Once the fermentation process is complete, the wine ages for about a year partly in wooden barrels and partly in steelbefore the blending and final bottling. It is followed by a year of aging in the bottle.
The Sangiovese Rosso from the artisanal winery Cantina Margò has an intense ruby red color. From the glass, distinct fruity aromas of cherry, wild strawberry, and berries emerge, enhanced by spicy nuances and delicate floral memories of rose petals and violet. The taste progression is warm, juicy, and enveloping, supported by excellent freshness and well-integrated tannins. The finish recalls the fruity sensations perceived on the nose. This Umbrian red wine is the ideal choice for carefree barbecues with friends and family, especially paired with lamb or pork.
