Description
xOverview of the Wine
Working every day to become a good ancestor, nourishing the land and people, creating a better world for those to come, is the Avignonesi Group’s vision.
The company’s mission is to assume leadership in the context of the “good wine industry”. An ecosystem built on organic and biodynamic agriculture, sustainable distribution systems and consumer education. We work transparently and by innovating, driven by a very long-term view. The development of Avignonesi, founded on the production of wine, also extends to our Hospitality.
The Ancient Greeks would have defined a similar approach to the wine industry with the words kalòs kagathòs: literally, the beautiful and the good. The portrayal of an idea of indivisible beauty and goodness. Virtues that speak of a profound coherence of soul, uniting qualities that if separated could not have existed. To be “beautiful” (kalòs) one had to “also behave well” (kagathòs). An ancient concept that encapsulates Avignonesi today: working with determination to act in a noble way, as well as being producers of Nobile.
Placing high-level products and services on a global market, respecting people, the land and the community of Montepulciano. A constant search for excellence and, in addition to quality, delight, in perfect harmony with the promises made to customers and end-consumers, through distribution channels and hospitality, which are not just empty words.
The level of attention paid to the impact of the Avignonesi Group has become foundational to build our company culture. A long journey that began in 2009 and was formalized in 2021 with the recognition of Benefit Corporation. Generating value, acting coherently, mitigating impact and safeguarding an organic and biodynamic approach is the only path that Avignonesi recognizes as effective.
Biodynamic and organic.

Winemaker's Tasting Notes
With its abundant, upfront fruit and bright acidity Avignonesi's Rosso di Montepulciano is a typical example of Sangiovese from Tuscany. The Netflix of reds, that surprises you and calls you back more for its great drinkability.
The sediments you might find in this wine show that it is made of pure Sangiovese with minimal intervention. The deposit is due to its high content of a natural antioxidant called quercetin, which is perfectly safe. This is not a flaw, it is a characteristic of the pure Sangiovese.
The Rosso di Montepulciano has a brilliant ruby red colour. In the nose it opens with fresh notes of violet, strawberry and blueberry, accompanied by final nuances of wild myrtle and black cherry. The palate is juicy and crisp with increasing intensity of flavour. It is an easy-drinking wine with a delicate tannic structure, accompanied by generous aftertaste notes of cherry, typical of Sangiovese.
92 Points - James Suckling
A beautiful Rosso di Montepulciano with fresh cherry, orange-peel and floral character. It’s medium-bodied with fine, delicate tannins and a citrusy undertone at the finish. 100% sangiovese. From organically grown grapes.
