About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The Sangiovese is grown in the estate’s vineyards in Tuscany. A favourable climate and careful vine tending allow the grapes to ripen in healthy condition.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested at optimal ripeness, usually in the second half of September. After pressing, they ferment in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks at 26–28 °C for 14 days.

Ageing

The wine rests for four months in stainless-steel tanks.

Tasting profile

Elegant.
