- A stylish red showing an abundance of ripe plummy and blueberry fruit, enhanced by hints of herbs and a delicate touch of mint. Rich, soft, and opulent tannins lead to a long, intense finish. Sophisticated Tuscan at its best.
The grapes were harvested by hand at optimum maturity and carefully sorted. Fermentation took place in small 50 hectolitre temperature controlled stainless steel tanks, to ensure maximum skin contact, lasting a period of 10 to 15 days. The wine was matured in 225 litre French oak barriques for a period of 20 months, followed by approximately seven months cellaring in bottle, prior to release.

| Winery | The grapes are carefully selected from the Ripa delle More vineyard, which is situated at an altitude of 255 to 265 meters above sea level. The sustainably cultivated vines exceed 20 years in age and are pruned according to the single Guyot method to ensure low yields of approximately 42 hectolitres per hectare. The soil in this vineyard is Galestro', a rocky, schistous clay soil commonly found in most of Tuscany's best vineyards, with 30% heavy clay. |
