After a careful selection of Sangiovese grapes, and properly using the French barrique for aging, (which enhances the typical characteristics of the Tuscan Sangiovese), we create an elegant wine with great harmony and a very balanced structure, soft textured and velvety. It is produced from grapes of the Paretaio vineyard in San Gimignano with Sangiovese (95%) and a hint of Cabernet Sauvignon 5% carefully selected during the harvest. After a 12 months stay in small 225 litre French oak barrels it spends 12 more months to refine in bottle before being released.
