IGT Toscana Fossifòco

Colour

Deep ruby red colour.

Nose

Wine of extraordinary identity, harmonious, intense, rich and complex with fruity and spicy notes.

Palate

Sweet, dense, intense and balanced tannin with a fresh acidity. Notes of berry fruits, typical of the undergrowth, with spicy and balsamic hints. The terroir is the master of this wine; its expression represents Sangiovese in its great territorial expression married to a small note of Merlot.

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 small steel tanks. After 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 18 months.
After bottling, it ages in glass for 6-12 months before being placed on the market.
