Territory and wine style

The designation is Costa Toscana Rosso IGP, an area that enhances wines with intense personality, often capable of expressing fruit maturity, Mediterranean energy, and a dynamic aromatic weave. In this case, Duemani interprets the territory with an essential and precise style, focusing on fermentation and maceration at controlled temperatures in cement tanks, followed by aging in French oak truncated-conical vats for 8-10 months. Bottling without clarification and filtration helps maintain the wine's identity intact.

Tasting notes

In the glass, Altrovino 2019 presents itself with a deep and dense red color, consistent with the Bordeaux style and its structural setup. On the nose, cherry, blueberries, and currants emerge, accompanied by balsamic nuances, mint notes, and spicy hints. The palate is rich yet harmonious, with mature fruitiness supported by freshness and aromatic tension. The Cabernet Franc adds lift, verticality, and an elegant vegetal note, while the Merlot provides softness and fullness in the mid-palate. The finish is flavorful, persistent, and well-balanced between fruit, spices, and balsamic sensations.

Recommended pairings

This Tuscan red shines with flavorful and structured dishes. It pairs well with braised pork shank, lamb skewers, Florentine steak, and oven-roasted capon with potatoes, but can also accompany roasts, braised meats, grilled sliced beef, and preparations with aromatic herbs. Its freshness and balsamic profile make it suitable for main courses with strong flavors without being heavy.

Serving temperature

The ideal temperature for Altrovino 2019 is 16°C. If the bottle has been stored at room temperature, it may be helpful to open it a few minutes before serving to enhance the aromatic expression. A long decanting is not necessary, but brief aeration can help the wine relax, especially if served in a younger phase of its evolution.
