Castello di Torre in Pietra Rosso 'Elephas'

Filippo Antonelli & Lorenzo Majnoni run this charming, certified organic estate just west of Rome. Their wines can be summed up with two words — pure and likeable. They are not grandiose or over the top…..they’re just good.

The blend here is Sangiovese, Montepulciano, and Merlot fermented in a combination of stainless steel and cement tanks. Super fresh, balanced, and smooth, this one exudes aromas and flavors of ripe red fruits and violet. With its bright and refreshing acidity, this would work wonderfully with pizza or pasta with red sauce.
