Lazio Rosso IGP 'Montiano' 2017 (750 ml.) - Famiglia Cotarella
'Montiano' is the flagship product by Cotarella Family, acclaimed since its inception as one of the greatest and most innovative Italian reds, it is the result of a Merlot grape cut planted by grafters of Montpellier in a land traditionally suited to white vines. On the Lazio hills, the merlot reaches an extraordinary level of ripeness, then expressing itself in wines of the highest elegance perfectly balanced and of considerable pleasantness. This in particular arises from an old vineyard with low productivity, where selection was more rigorous. It is left to mature for at least a year in French oak barrels. Soft and balanced it is able to amaze even after several years from the harvest.

The letters R and C inspired the original RC2 monogram.
