Producer Tasting Notes
Colour: Intense ruby red. Bouquet: Rich bouquet, complex and elegant, made up by hints of cherry and small red ripe fruits, perfectly combined with spicy aromas and hints of oak from the long stay in the wood. Taste: Well-structured on the palate, rich and full, the powerful and ripe tannins are supported by a pleasant freshness. Excellent long-lasting and elegant aftertaste in accordance with the bouquet.Vineyard Notes
Production area: Montalcino - Siena - SantAngelo hill overlooking the Orcia River facing south-south/West. Vineyard: Poggio al Vento. Average height: 300 m above sea level. First planting in 1974 and subsequent years.Winemaking
Fermentation at controlled temperature of 28°C. in stainless steel tanks of 50 and 60 hl. Grapes from different parts of the vineyard were kept separate in order to select the best batches after fermentation. During the maceration, that lasted 20-25 days, daily pump-over and long “delestages” were carried out. Malolactic fermentation took place in concrete tanks..Ageing
3 years in Slavonian and Allier oak barrels of 25 and 75 hl, followed by about 3 years of further aging in the bottle before release.Join Our Wine Club
