Questo vino

Vineyard and terroir

The vines grow in central Tuscany at 280 m a.s.l., with south-east exposure and Pliocene sandy soils. They are 18 years old and trained to spur-pruned cordon.

Grapes

100% Sangiovese.

Vinification

Maceration and fermentation take place together in stainless-steel vessels at controlled temperature for four days. The wine undergoes malolactic fermentation.

Ageing

Maturation lasts 30 months in new, medium-toast French oak barriques.

Technical data

Annual production ranges from 2,666 to 10,000 bottles. The available format is 750 ml.

Tasting profile

Intense red in colour. Red and black woodland fruits lead the bouquet, developing spicy nuances with age and finishing with chocolate and vanilla. The palate is full-bodied, deep and long, with soft, elegant tannins integrated into the wine’s acidity.

Serving and pairing

Serve at 18°C with mixed grilled meats, Florentine steak or aged Pecorino cheese.
