Tasting Notes

Produced in Tuscany, this wine reflects a genuine sense of place. Its 13.5% alcohol content supports a rounded, well-integrated style. Crafted from Sangiovese, Ciliegiolo, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, 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 the hill of Sant'Angelo, overlooking the Orcia river, about 250 meters above sea level. Vinification: alcoholic fermentation in steel at a controlled temperature with maceration on the skins for 8-10 days. Malolactic fermentation in barrique. The wine is aged 20% of Sangiovese in barrique for a few months and the remainder in steel. A wine capturing the sun-drenched hills of Tuscany in every glass.
