Badia di Morrona Terre di Pisa Vigna Alta 2016
The finest expression of Sangiovese at the estate, fruit of a rigorous selection of the grapes of the best vineyards on the property. Low yields per acre and a careful aging in cask and barrel are the sole measures taken to produce a wine which, in all of its various characteristics, declares: Tuscany.

Colour

Nuance garnet.

Bouquet

On the nose the wine offers an intense and elegant bouquet of red fruit, cherries and wild cherries, along with sweet spices.

Flavour

Structured and balanced, the palate is full-bodied with a tannic density, well amalgamated and sustained, which is typical of a fine Sangiovese.

Pairing

An ideal wine with game.
