Sallustio - Montefalco Rosso DOC (Vini di Filippo-biodynamie) 🐸🐸🐸

🐸🐸🐸 Natural biodynamic wine, little sulphite

A well-tempered wine, with character but without being cloying. 12 months of maturation in large barrels give slightly tannic notes which diminish over the years. The beautiful length makes it the ideal companion for red meats, cured hams, salamis and cheeses with character.

Passion, respect, love. These are the three forces that guide us in our daily life with our vines. Passion for our work, respect for the soil and love for the family tradition that cultivates vines that produce wines expressing the terroir. 30 hectares, overlooking Assisi, resting on sunny hills between Torgiano and Montefalco, in the heart of Umbria. We have a culture tradition that respects nature, because we firmly believe in the need to find a constant balance between man, soil, flora and fauna. As a result, we adopt an organic cultivation that respects the laws of biodynamic agriculture. We are sure that this will allow our children to continue to cultivate the land.
