Enos I

Tenuta Montauto is a small reality immersed in the heart of the Maremma surrounded by a rocky environment and nothing else without any presence of civilization other than the provincial road with little traffic, where nature has given so much as the clayey soil rich in minerals such as quartz and the proximity to the sea which is just over ten km away as the crow flies which ensures a beneficial breeze that dries the bunches in humid periods and refreshes in hot periods and at the same time brings iodine into the vineyard. Therefore, a particularly suitable area that only needs to be accompanied in producing quality grapes for great wines and grandfather Enos had understood this concept even if at the time there were no in-depth studies on the terroir as happens today, but learned with sensitivity farmer of those who live in the vineyard and who made the decision to plant Sauvignon cuttings where the production of red wines was preferred. In the vineyard we work with full respect for nature, producing grapes without the use of pesticides. This is the landscape context that strongly attracts Riccardo, Enos' grandson, who at a certain point in his life after completing his studies feels the need to return to his native land to continue his grandfather's work and thus bring the Tenuta Montauto winery to be appreciated in Italy and around the world.

Enos I of Tenuta Montauto the grapes come from 40-year-old vineyards, managed organically, treated only with copper and sulfur and fertilized with stable manure. The soils, predominantly clayey and rich in quartz, are positioned 200 m above sea level and 10 km from the coast, in a unique and uncontaminated terroir, characterized by important temperature variations between day and night. Once fully ripe, the grapes are selected and harvested manually and placed in 18 kg boxes, we then proceed with the soft pressing of the whole bunch. Decantation for 36 hours and fermentation in steel.

Enos I from Tenuta Montauto has a straw yellow color with greenish hues. On the nose the scents are aromas of exotic fruit (passion fruit) with mineral traces of flint. The fresh and decisive taste gives way to velvety and aromatic notes, with a savory, harmonious and persistent finish.
