Description
Turpino 2017 Rosso Toscana IGT Magnum: Maremma elegance signed by Querciabella
Turpino 2017 Rosso Toscana IGT Magnum is a red wine of great personality signed by Querciabella, a refined expression of Maremma and the coastal character of Tuscany. It is born from a blend of Cabernet Franc, Syrah, and Merlot, varieties that harmoniously interact to create an intense, balanced red with a pleasant gastronomic lift. The magnum format further enhances its aging potential and conviviality.
Territory and wine style
The Rosso Toscana IGT Turpino comes from the vineyards of Alberese, in Maremma, where the maritime climate favors a complete ripening of the grapes without losing the natural freshness of the fruit. This balance between warmth, ventilation, and proximity to the sea is reflected in an elegant, sober, and never excessive style. Querciabella interprets the territory with a focus on finesse, crafting a wine that combines aromatic richness and precision, with a clear Tuscan imprint but also an international breath.
Tasting notes
In the glass, it presents an intense ruby red with violet reflections. The bouquet is ripe and seductive, with notes of cherry, berries, violet, and rose petals, enriched by spices, white pepper, and a hint of cedar wood. On the palate, the wine is juicy, expressive, and well-balanced, with fine tannins and good acidity that supports the sip. The texture is harmonious, the progression is linear, and the finish is long, savory, and pleasantly taut.
Recommended pairings
Turpino 2017 Magnum pairs naturally with structured but not overly aggressive dishes, such as roasted red meats, braised dishes, game birds, oven-roasted lamb, and grilled fillet. It is also excellent with characterful Tuscan preparations, such as pappardelle with ragù, peposo, porcini mushrooms, and aged cheeses. Its freshness and spicy profile make it suitable for contemporary cuisine as long as it is rich and flavorful.
Serving temperature
Serve Turpino 2017 Rosso Toscana IGT Magnum at a temperature between 16 and 18 °C. If possible, it is advisable to open the bottle a little in advance to allow the wine to best express its aromatic component and fine tannic structure, especially in a magnum format that benefits from greater gradual oxygenation.
Why buy it
Choosing Turpino 2017 Rosso Toscana IGT Magnum means bringing to the table an elegant, original, and well-constructed Tuscan red, capable of combining intensity and measure. It is an ideal wine for those looking for an important bottle to share on special occasions, but also a reliable choice to accompany an important dinner or enrich the cellar with a prestigious label. The magnum format enhances its visual presence, evolution, and perceived value.
