Montauto Staccione Toscana Rosato 2018
The Staccione is grown in a mixture of volcanic tuff and clay, which benefits from breezes off the ocean (the coast is about six miles away). The juice is briefly macerated on the skins, imparting a pale salmon pink color, then slowly fermented in the cellar. Equal parts fruit, flowers, and minerals, this elegant rosé makes a lovely aperitivo and pairs beautifully with oysters and fish, lighter pastas, and chicken or rabbit.
