Questo vino
Grapes
The blend is 85% Sangiovese, complemented by Malvasia Nera and Canaiolo.
Vineyard and terroir
The vines are trained to the overturned Tuscan cordon system.
Vinification
Mechanical harvesting and grape selection take place from late September through the first two weeks of October. After soft pressing, the must macerates on the skins for three weeks with pumping over the cap. Alcoholic and malolactic fermentations use native yeasts.
Ageing
Ageing takes place in vitrified cement tanks, followed by another four to five months in bottle.
Tasting profile
Ruby red in colour. Red-cherry and floral aromas lead to a fresh, intense palate in which soft tannins remain harmonious.
Serving and pairing
The expected ageing horizon is approximately five years.
