Grape varieties: Sangiovese 100%
Winemaking: fermentation, in 40/35 hectoliter stainless steel vats, usually lasts 28/30 days depending on the vintage, takes place spontaneously in the days following the harvest in non-air-conditioned rooms, hence the need to intervene on high temperatures with frequent pumping over throughout the day and often with délestage.
Maturation: after racking, the clean wine remains in steel for another few months during which it undergoes malolactic fermentation. After decanting, it is placed in large 18/22 hectoliter medium toasted Slavonian oak barrels.
Refinement: after 36 months of maturation in barrel, 24 months of bottle refinement follow.
Tasting notes: bright ruby red in colour, complex on the nose with intense aromas of red berry fruit, blueberry, ripe cherry, with hints of undergrowth, spices and toasting. On the palate it is powerful, warm, expresses soft and elegant tannins, harmony and a very long taste-olfactory persistence.
Pairing: ideal with roast red meats and game skewers, also excellent as a meditation wine.
