Vineyard and terroir
The grapes come from Località Casetta.
Grapes
60% Sangiovese and 40% Merlot.
Vinification
Merlot is harvested at the end of September and Sangiovese in mid-October. After destemming, alcoholic fermentation and maceration take place in truncated-cone vats, followed by racking.
Ageing
The wine matures for 12 months, divided between stainless-steel tanks and French oak barriques and tonneaux. It then spends 6 months in tank and another 6 months in bottle.
Tasting profile
The nose has good intensity and persistence, with woody nuances integrated into the fruit character. The palate is firm, full-bodied and approachable. Clearly defined tannins remain balanced by the fruit, while the finish has good length.
