Unlike lighter Montepulciano-based wines, Roggio del Filare offers greater structure and ageing potential due to the inclusion of Cabernet Sauvignon and extended oak maturation. Compared to purely Cabernet-driven wines, it retains a softer, more rounded texture through the influence of Montepulciano. This positions it as a premium Italian red that bridges power and elegance, appealing to those seeking complexity and refinement.
Tasting Notes
The nose opens with blackcurrant, ripe plum and dark cherry, layered with notes of vanilla, tobacco and sweet spice shaped by its 18 months in oak.
On the palate, the wine is rich and structured. Concentrated dark fruit and integrated oak unfold across a firm tannic backbone, with balanced acidity maintaining freshness. The finish is long and persistent, leaving impressions of cocoa, spice and dried fruit.
Food Pairing
This wine pairs exceptionally well with grilled red meats and slow-cooked dishes, where its firm tannins bind with protein to enhance texture and depth. It also complements aged cheeses, as its structure balances richness, while its oak-driven spice aligns with roasted and savoury flavours.
