Merchant's description

The Franci family, raised in Montalcino for many generations, started its business making honey by the patriarch of the family Guido Franci. Franci Franca winery, run by his son Fabio Tassi, is strongly bonded with Montalcino’s territory since its origin. Its wine clearly expresses its tie to the land with elegance and uniqueness. Tassi, Rosso di Montalcino is a bold Rosso that reflects the character and personality of the land and winery. The richness of the soil and meticulous care of the vineyard have made this estate one of the finest in the Montalcino region. The wine is bright red with a fragrant and aromatic bouquet of red fruit, minerals and flowers. Full bodied with powerful structure and balanced tannins.
