“Super clean and focused berry and cherry character here. Forest-fruit style. Medium-bodied with good intensity of clean fruit and firm tannins that are already latching on to the fruit. Nicely done, but needs a year or so. Best after 2022.” James Suckling 92/100

Area: Tuscany/ Toscana

Grape Variety: Sangiovese

Vinification: After spontaneous alcoholic fermentation in steel there is a period of maceration on the skins. The malolactic fermentation that follows takes place in cement tanks. The wine then ages in 54 hl barrels of Slavonian oak

Organoleptic Characteristics: Intense ruby red. Strong notes of cherry with floral accents. On the palate, full fruit and pleasant freshness. Tannins are supported by a lovely freshness and full fruit. Tannins are felt but not aggressive.

Food Pairing: Perfect with traditional Tuscan dishes such as ribollita and papa al pomodoro. Pairs well with grilled white and red meats.
