About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The grapes grow on soils composed mainly of sedimentary rock. These soils retain moisture well and impart a mineral character to the fruit.

Vinification

The grapes undergo two selections, first in the vineyard and then at the winery. Fermentation takes place with wild yeasts in temperature-controlled conical stainless-steel tanks, preserving freshness while developing structural complexity.

Ageing

The wine matures in oak barrels for one year, bringing its structure into balance.

Serving and pairing

Pairs particularly well with red meat and traditional Italian pasta.

Label / history

The name “Clinio” refers to Tuscany’s Etruscan past.
