Description
Cuna, a still red from Tuscany, 13% ABV, produced by Cuna di Federico Staderini. 100% Pinot Noir, 2020 vintage.

The grapes are vinified parcel by parcel, with obsessive attention to quality. Aged in old Burgundy barrels, where the Pinot Noir expresses more of the land than itself.

"In my mature years, I gave shape to the idea of making wine in the green hills of Casentino crowned by the peaks of the Apennines.
The remarkable day/night temperature range of these hills of ours gives finesse and brio to the aromas and the clay-limestone soils with their humours transfer persuasiveness and substance to the grapes.
In the total 4 hectares of vineyards, 44,000 pinot noir and abrostine vines, an ancient Etruscan grape, are planted as thick as peppercorns.
All the grapes are vinified parcel by parcel and each one for itself." (Federico Staderini) Read more
