Description
What kind of wine it is
Pater Sangiovese by Frescobaldi is a still red wine that expresses the authentic soul of the Sangiovese grape. This wine stands out for its fresh and elegant style, able to combine a medium body with a pleasant smoothness on the palate. On the nose, the aromatic profile is lively, dominated by clear fruity notes of black cherry, blackberry and strawberry, skilfully accompanied by peppery nuances and subtle hints of liquorice. On the palate, it is rounded and well-structured, finishing the tasting with a long and persistent finish marked by a distinctly clean character.
Where it comes from
This wine is born in the heart of the region, faithfully reflecting the typicality of Tuscany and the agricultural heritage of the Frescobaldi family. The environment of origin gives the Sangiovese grape a very characteristic spicy texture and a well-defined organoleptic liveliness, typical of grapes grown in this area. This geographical connection translates into a taut and measured sip, supported by a pleasant natural freshness. This linear approach makes the wine ideal for accompanying roasts, game and the richest traditional Tuscan dishes.
How it is produced
The winemaking process begins with a careful manual harvest, followed by gentle pressing of fully ripened grapes. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature, a technique aimed at preserving the grape's aromatic precision. The oenological journey continues with careful ageing in barrels of French and American oak, which enriches the structure with subtle tertiary hints of leather and coffee. Finally, the wine rests for several months in steel tanks and concludes its production cycle with a final period of rest, thus stabilising its harmonious profile.
History and Curiosities
Pater Toscana IGT celebrates the centuries-old history of the Frescobaldi family, guardians of the land since 1300. This enveloping red wine is made from 100% Sangiovese grapes, hand-picked to express a perfect harmony between tradition and excellence. The skilful maturation, alternating between resting in steel and ageing in oak barrels, gives it a lively aromatic profile where notes of blackberry and black cherry meet hints of liquorice. The palate is smooth, crowned by a persistent finish that enhances every pairing at the table.
