| Grape varieties |
Merlot, 90% Sangiovese, Syrah |
| Origin |
San Casciano Val di Pesa (Florence). |
| Vinification |
The grapes, harvested separately by variety, were destemmed, gently crushed and placed in stainless steel tanks. Alcoholic fermentation took place at a controlled temperature of between 26 and 28°C to enhance the aromatic expression and preserve each variety's fruity and floral notes. Maceration, managed with mechanical interventions to extract soft and sweet tannins, took about a week for the Sangiovese and 12-15 days for the complementary grape varieties. |
| Ageing |
At the end of malolactic fermentation, which was completed by the end of winter for all varieties, the wine was blended and transferred to wood, where it matured for about nine months in large Slavonian oak casks and, for a small part, in barriques and stainless steel tanks. |
