2020 Trerose - Rosso di Montepulciano Salterio (750ml)

A 2020 Tenuta Trerose Rosso di Montepulciano "Salterio" delivers a lighter, earlier-drinking expression of Tuscan Sangiovese built for immediate enjoyment rather than extended cellaring.

Grown across five distinct hills surrounding a historic property near Valiano di Montepulciano, the vines benefit from a varied terrain of clay, sand, and silt soils. This bottling is built mainly from Prugnolo Gentile—the local name for Sangiovese—supplemented with small amounts of Cabernet and Merlot to round out the structure. Designed as a fresher counterpart to the estate's heavier Vino Nobile releases, Salterio emphasizes approachability while retaining genuine regional character.

The nose presents an earthy, herbaceous foundation complemented by sweeter, bright accents of candied red apple and cherry. On the palate, the wine stays medium-bodied, carrying forward cherry and garden herb flavors while a touch of blood orange lifts the sweetness and adds a gentle, pleasant tannic edge.

This food-friendly profile makes it highly adaptable at the table. It pairs naturally with cured meats, young cheeses, or simple tomato-based pasta dishes where its vibrant acidity and herbal notes can shine without competing with richer sauces.
