This is the wine that, more than any other, forms our bond with the local heritage. Sangiovese dominates the blend and slow maturation in tradition oak ovals that temper its assertiveness and expand its depth on nose and palate.

Sensory profile and impressions

Deep, garnet-tinged ruby; the bouquet gradually unfurls flowers, fruit, spice and gunflint in an intriguingly absorbing array of earthily wide-ranging aromatics; sangiovese’s austere tannins are firmly in the traditional mould, underpinning progression on the subtly nuanced but very centred palate, which combines warmth, freshness, savouriness and minerality.

Food matchings

The palate’s sangiovese-driven tannic weave and austerity make this a perfect match for very flavoursome dishes, such as juicy, strongly fragrant meat-based preparations or furred and feathered game of all kinds.
