Area of Production: Tuscany
Varietal: 100% Sangiovese Alcohol: 12.5% Wine Notes: Bright ruby red color. Intense and characteristic bouquet, fruity with a violet fragrance. Dry and harmonious on the palate with notes of dark chocolate and black cherries. Winemaking Technique: Traditional vinification method: ripe grapes are harvested from the best vineyards and immediately crushed in order to minimize oxidation. The must is then fermented in large stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 23-24° C. When the primary fermentation is finished, the wine is stored in contact with the skins for a greater extraction of color and structure for a period of 10-15 days. At the end of the fermentation the wine is aged in Slovenian oak casks for a minimum period of 24 months before being released. Recommended Pairings: Ideal with grilled meats, pasta dishes with rich tomato sauce, charcuterie and aged cheese. UPC: 089475426010 |
