Rocca di Frassinello's red cru "San Germano" is made from a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and a small percentage of Sangioveto grapes grown on the hill of the same name, which is also the estate's highest location, where vines were cultivated by the ancient Etruscans around 3,000 years ago. A millennia-old history that has enabled the plants to select themselves and naturally develop their defences against climatic and biological adversities, resulting in healthier and higher quality grapes.

Intense ruby red colour with garnet hues. brooding and beautifully defined on the nose with plenty of character. A potpourri of blackberries, pebbles, dark spices and mocha on the palate. San Germano is a wine that perfectly manages to combine power, intensity and elegance, blessed with soft tannins that give it a very pleasant roundness in the mouth. Deep and long in the mouth, but always lively and full of balance and harmony. SUPERIORE.DE

"Sparkling, rich ruby colour. Opens with notes of leather and tobacco, lots of plum, some cassis. Punchy, gripping tannins on the palate, great depth, dark berry fruit and tobacco." Falstaff

"The 2019 San Germano is bursting with super-ripe black cherry, plum, lavender, dried herbs and spice. This flamboyant, racy Maremma red packs plenty of punch. Broad and ample, with real palate presence, the 2019 has a ton to offer." Vinous
