100% Sangiovese

Winter was characterized by mild temperatures and by frequent rains. The growing season began slightly earlier than usual and continued with cool weather. Frequent summer rainfall and lower than normal temperatures led to slight delays in the ripening of the grapes, which were then recovered during the first two weeks of September.

 Given this improvement in the weather and a careful manual selection of the grapes during the harvest, the crop arrived in the cellars in good condition.The grapes were given a light pressing and the extraction during the fermentation took place at temperatures around 77° Fahrenheit (25° centigrade). The period of skin contact lasted between eight and ten days. After the fermentation and the subsequent malolactic fermentation, the wine aged in large oak casks for twelve months.

An intense and luminous ruby red in color, the wine shows a complex nose of cherries, plums, and red berry fruit. The palate is vigorous and vibrant, and a lovely acidic vein fused with much flavor make this and ample and balanced wine. The finish and aftertaste are persistent and lingering.
