Territory and style of the wine

This wine is born from the vineyards of the Tenute del Cabreo located on the hills of Greve in Chianti, a historic area of Tuscany that offers balance, identity, and finesse. The cuvée combines Sangiovese at 70% and Cabernet Sauvignon at 30%, blending the territorial character of the region's emblematic grape with an international contribution that enhances its structure and depth. The altitude of about 300 meters helps maintain freshness and aromatic definition, while the overall style focuses on harmony, personality, and elegance.

Tasting notes

On the nose, articulated and refined nuances emerge, while the sip is enveloping, silky, and of long persistence. The tannic component is present but well integrated, supported by a balanced taste structure and good freshness that accompanies the finish. Aging in French oak contributes to depth and lift, without weighing down the fruity imprint of the wine.
