Description
Still red wine from Tuscany IGT, 14% ABV, produced by Petra. 0.75 L bottle, 2022 vintage. A Sangiovese that expresses the excellence of the Tuscan terroir, with grapes grown in the Alto vineyard, in the San Lorenzo area. The nose focuses on notes of undergrowth, humus, cherries, and violets, accompanied by hints of berries, raspberries, and blueberries, and a mineral undertone. Bright ruby red. The palate is varietal: fresh, savory, with an elegant structure, firm tannins yet well-woven into a fruity flavor profile and a lingering mineral finish.
