Territory and wine style

The IGT Rosso Toscana comes from hand-selected grapes in the vineyards of Castellina in Chianti and Radda in Chianti, in a hilly context that offers favorable conditions for the slow and precise ripening of the grapes. The altitudes between 230 and 400 meters above sea level, combined with the presence of clay, medium soil, and skeleton, contribute to defining a wine of energy, depth, and good taste tension. The continental climate, with strong seasonal variations, helps preserve balance and complexity, elements that are clearly reflected in the style of IL BLU 2022.

Tasting notes

In the glass, it presents an intense and deep red color, foreshadowing a rich and concentrated texture. On the nose, aromas of currant, violet, and cocoa emerge, accompanied by hints of ripe berries and an elegant aromatic framework. On the palate, it is full-bodied, enveloping, and well-structured, with elegant tannins that are firm yet soft in the overall perception. The freshness supports the sip without making it angular, while the finish is full, harmonious, and persistent, with returns of red fruit and a sense of great balance.

Recommended pairings
