The Power of the Maremma, the Elegance of Montalcino—Now in a Grand Format.

The 2022 Romitòro is a bold, "baby Super Tuscan" that captures the sun-drenched spirit of the Tuscan coast. Crafted by the renowned artist-winery Castello Romitorio, this Magnum (1.5L) isn't just a bottle of wine; it’s a centerpiece. Twice the size of a standard bottle, the Magnum format is the gold standard for aging and the ultimate statement for your next dinner party.

🍷 Tasting Notes: Intensity & Focus

The 2022 vintage is defined by its remarkable "tense and polished" character.

• Aroma: An explosive bouquet of ripe Marasca cherry and red plums, layered with dried flowers, red licorice, and a sophisticated touch of iodine and bacon fat.²

• Palate: Medium-to-full-bodied with a supple, velvety texture.³ Dense flavors of blackberry and boysenberry are framed by polished tannins and a vibrant, "crunchy" acidity that keeps the wine incredibly fresh.⁴

• Finish: Long and warming, leaving a trail of violet florals and a savory, mineral-flecked aftertaste.

🎨 The Art of the Label: "The Raging Bull"

Every bottle of Romitòro tells a story. The label features a stunning original work by world-renowned artist Sandro Chia.⁵ The "raging bull" represents the gutsy, full-bodied nature of the Syrah and Petit Verdot blend—a wine with muscle, power, and an undeniable "Brio" (spirit).

"A gutsy, full-bodied package where fruit is foremost... the tannins attain an almost mocha-vanilla sweetness." — Anne Krebiehl MW

Why Buy the Magnum?

Magnums age more slowly and gracefully than standard bottles because of the lower oxygen-to-wine ratio. This 2022 vintage is a prime candidate for your cellar, or the perfect "wow-factor" gift for a wine collector.
