Tasting Notes

This distinctive wine from Tuscany embodies traditional Italian winemaking heritage. With 13.5% alcohol, it strikes a confident balance between body and freshness. Crafted from Sangiovese 85%, Merlot 10%, Cabernet Franc 5%, 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 on hilly soils rich in calcium and clay at 300 - 450 m a.s.l. facing South/South-East South/South-West. Vinification: soft pressing of the grapes, cold maceration and fermentation in steel tanks at a controlled temperature. The wine is aged 10 months in steel tanks and 4 months in bottle. A wine capturing the sun-drenched hills of Tuscany in every glass.
