The result of a harmonious \u003cstrong\u003eblend of Sangiovese and Ciliegiolo\u003c\/strong\u003e, it displays an intense ruby red colour with violet highlights. The aromatic profile is clear, characterised by rich \u003cstrong\u003enotes of cherry\u003c\/strong\u003e and black cherry, giving way to subtle spicy hints. On the palate, it reveals a full structure, supported by \u003cstrong\u003esoft, ripe tannins\u003c\/strong\u003e that lead the sip towards a pleasantly fresh finish. It is ideal paired with red meats, game and mature cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes used to produce this red wine are grown in Montalcino, in the province of Siena, on soils situated at around 250 metres above sea level. This location encourages optimal ripening and defines the wine’s distinct territorial character. The \u003cstrong\u003eCol d’Orcia estate\u003c\/strong\u003e, long recognised for its contribution to enhancing Brunello, tends these \u003cstrong\u003eorganically managed vineyards\u003c\/strong\u003e with an approach based on full respect for the ecosystem. With deep historical roots, the estate works to enhance local varieties through agriculture focused on \u003cstrong\u003eenvironmental sustainability\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eVinification focuses on enhancing the primary aromas through a \u003cstrong\u003emaceration of the grapes\u003c\/strong\u003e lasting about eight to ten days. During this stage, temperatures are strictly kept below 26°C to preserve the fruit component intact. This is followed by malolactic fermentation, which, for part of the Sangiovese, takes place in \u003cstrong\u003ewooden barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e, enriching the wine’s texture with delicate structural nuances. The technical choice of \u003cstrong\u003eearly bottling\u003c\/strong\u003e finally allows all the freshness and aromatic identity of the product to be captured and preserved over time.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProduced in Montalcino, this \u003cstrong\u003eorganic Toscana IGT\u003c\/strong\u003e takes its name from the ancient Florentine merchants of the Renaissance, masters in the art of blending.
