Cabernet Sauvignon
The terroir is the master of this wine, whose expression is represented by Cabernet Sauvignon.

Colour

Deep ruby red colour with purple nuances.

Nose

Extraordinary identity wine, very intense and elegant. Refined, rich and complex with fruity notes of small black and red fruits combined with fresh undergrowth spices.

Palate

Sweet, thick, dense, voluminous, long and balanced tannins with a fresh acidity that extends into long and intense fruity and spicy notes. Elegant and austere full-bodied wine where the fruit, spices and balsamic freshness dance in a unique and fascinating intertwining. The terroir is the master of this wine; its expression represents the “face to face” comparison of two great vines, Sangiovese and Cabernet Sauvignon, which have found their great varietal expression in Tuscany.

After a meticulous green harvest the grapes are collected in small boxes, cooled overnight and then checked on a double sorting table.
Fermentation takes place in barriques with the integral winemaking technique. After a long maceration on the skins, the wine is transferred to French fine-grained oak barriques from the best selection where malolactic fermentation takes place.

Elevation

French oak barrels “sur lies” for 24 months.
After bottling, it ages in glass for 12 months before being placed on the market.

Closure

Cork

750ml
