A traditional blend of mainly Sangiovese grapes. The fruit was harvested in Oct 2010, destemmed and soft crushed. Fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 25°C, and lasted around 12 days with frequent remontage to extract colour and achieve soft tannins. The juice was left in contact with the skins for 8 - 10 days and full malolactic was carried out. Aged for 3 months in large Slavonian oak barrels. Winemaker Massimo Tarter. Suitable for vegetarians. Alc 13.0%, TA 5.10g/l, pH 3.65, RS 3.0g/l. Special Offer: Save 25%, £6.99 - £5.24 from 17/08 to 13/09. Available from Waitrose Wine Direct and 252 branches. Not a particularly inviting nose. Dry and just not that interesting. May 2011 |
