About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The fruit comes from Tuscany.

Grapes

The wine is made from Prugnolo Gentile, identified in the source as Sangiovese.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel to retain a clean fruit character.

Ageing

The wine matures for 6–8 months in large Slavonian oak barrels, which contribute gentle spice and woody notes without obscuring the fruit. It then rests in bottle for a further 3 months, allowing the flavours to integrate.

Tasting profile

Elegant, subtle and expressive, with juicy red berries, floral notes and delicate spice. Cherry, sweet cherry and light herbal hints shape the palate, accompanied by freshness, good acidity, delicate structure and lively balance. The style is light and easy-drinking.
