Wine produced from Sangiovese grapes, selected and picked using crates at the
most favourable moment of the picking season. The grapes are vinified in wooden
barrels according to the ancient tradition of “Governo the Tuscan way” with the
addition of partially dried Cabernet grapes to the wine as soon as it is removed
from the barrels. Ageing takes place in the same barrels and continues, after
bottling directly from the barrels, for 6 months in glass. In this way a lively,
ruby-red wine is obtained, scented and full, fresh and harmonious to the palate
with a winey aftertaste that evokes the flavours of the grape harvest.
