Tasting Notes

Produced in Tuscany, this wine reflects a genuine sense of place. Its 14% alcohol content underpins a rich, muscular structure. Crafted from Cabernet Sauvignon 100%, this wine expresses the unique terroir characteristics. The palate shows depth and structure, with a finish that lingers pleasantly. The fruit is sourced from vineyards from Castelnuovo Berardenga, in the heart of the Chianti Classico area, from vines planted in 2002 on calcareous and clayey soil with a good presence of pebbles. Vinification: alcoholic fermentation in French oak barrels with contact with the skins for 30 days. Malolactic fermentation in French oak barrels. The wine is aged 24 months in barrique (70% new, 30% used 1 year), at least 36 months in bottle. A wine reflecting Tuscany's renowned terroir with elegant tannin structure and aging potential.
