Territory and wine style

The designation is Maremma Toscana Rosso IGT, an area that has established itself over the years as one of the most interesting regions in Tuscany for great international-style reds. The grapes come from the Saffredi vineyard in Pereta, at about 250 meters above sea level, on predominantly sandy soils with little organic matter and low clay content. This combination contributes to giving the wine energy, depth, and a natural tension, while maturation in barrels, mostly new, defines a rich, enveloping, and structured style.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it presents with an impenetrable ruby red, dense and thick. The bouquet opens with notes of red and dark fruits, currants, and blackberries, then evolves towards spicy nuances of cloves and cinnamon, with hints of chocolate enriching the olfactory profile. On the palate, the wine is round and velvety, with a full body, well-defined balance, and a very long persistence. The tannic structure supports the sip without weighing it down, while the spicy component accompanies the finish with great continuity.
