Tasting Notes

Deep ruby red color. The fragrant bouquet is dominated by violet, cherry and blackberry. On the palate, the wine is harmonious and dry; the soft tannins and moderate acidity contribute to the structure of this Tuscan treasure.

Winemaking Information

After crushing, grapes are fermented in stainless steel tanks by selected yeasts. Fermentation temperature is contained within 26-28°C and the must is pumped over its skins twice a day to draw coloring substances and tannins from the skins. After 10-15 days, the wine is separated from the dregs to prevent solubilisation of bitter tannins.

Serving Suggestion

Savory first courses, grilled meats and game.

Wine Enthusiast

88 Points // Subtle aromas of violet, underbrush and baking spice lead the way. The no-frills palate offers raspberry, clove and white pepper alongside pliant tannins. Drink through 2024. KERIN O’KEEFE

James Suckling

90 Points // Forest-floor character on the nose with some mushrooms and violets. Plummy fruit comes through on the medium palate and latches onto the medium-firm tannins. Quite an austere expression, but decent, with some length.
