About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The fruit comes from estate vineyards in the Tuscan hills, farmed with an emphasis on organic and biodynamic principles.

Grapes

The Sangiovese and Merlot grapes are selected before vinification.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand and gently pressed. Fermentation takes place in open stainless-steel and cement vats, followed by 40–60 days of maceration.

Ageing

The wine rests on its lees for 18 months: 10% in new tonneaux and 90% in cement and stainless-steel vats.

Tasting profile

Elegant, fresh and rich.
