Grapes used
Sangiovese Grosso.
Trend of the year
A particulary rainy year in spring and early summer, leading to a slowdown in ripenig. However, excellent maturity of the noble components was achieved in order to obtain wines of great personality. The wines have intense colours, a good polyphenolic structure, and ripe tannis which characterize a pleasant and balanced softness. From an aromatic point of view, the bouquet is outlined with prevalent notes of red fruit, and at times, spicy notes that further distinghuish the vintage.
Vinification
Carried out by indigenous yeasts in steel tanks at a controlled temperature (25-30° C); in order to preserve the typical bouquet of Sangiovese, frequent pump-overs and a long maceration on the skins were performed.
Maturation
At least 42 months in oak casks of different capacity.
Bottle ageing
In our cellars at a naturally controlled temperature and humidity.
Color
Intense ruby red, with intense anthocyanin concentration and garnet reflections.
Perfume
Intense and persistent with wild berries, hints of vanilla and spicy notes, very complex.

Very complex and intense, well-structured with a long evolution ahead.
