The 2024 Cantina Tollo Rocca Ventosa Sangiovese Terre d'Abruzzo is a vibrant and approachable Italian red crafted from Sangiovese, showcasing bright red fruit, lively acidity and the easy-drinking charm of the Abruzzo region. The nose is fragrant and expressive, revealing aromas of ripe cherry, wild raspberry and red plum, complemented by notes of violet, dried herbs and a touch of sweet spice.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with soft, supple tannins and refreshing natural acidity, delivering flavours of red cherry, cranberry and plum layered with hints of savoury herbs, subtle spice and a gentle earthy character. The finish is smooth, fresh and beautifully balanced, making it a versatile and food-friendly red.
Ben’s Recommendation: At Wine More Cellars, this is a fantastic Italian Sangiovese for customers seeking a fresh, fruit-driven red with excellent versatility and value. Best enjoyed now or over the next 3–5 years. Ideal with wood-fired pizza, tomato-based pasta dishes, grilled pork, roasted vegetables, charcuterie or semi-hard cheeses.
