MONASTERO SUORE CISTERCENSI BENEDIC LAZIO ROSSO 2024 750ML

The sisters produce a very small amount of red wine which they call “Benedic”: a blend of roughly equal

parts Sangiovese and Ciliegiolo. Despite its 15-day maceration, Benedic is always a pale-colored,

translucent wine that more than makes up for in charm what it lacks in heft. Typically weighing in at just

12.5% alcohol, it offers notes of macerated cherries, black tea, and licorice on its lithe, easygoing frame,

with an undercurrent of forest floor and bramble adding complexity. Serve as a chillable red!
