Special characteristic

Gravity-flow winemaking to preserve the character of the juice. Native-yeast fermentation, minimal temperature control, and a long period (35 to 45 days) of maceration (skin contact). Two years of maturation in 35-hectolitre Slavonian oak vessels and a further year of ageing in bottle. Only 4,000 bottles of this wine were made.

Bright red colour. Ripe sour cherry on a wonderfully aromatic nose. Gorgeous on the palate – delicate and very elegant, with cool forest fruit characters, black tea, and cocoa. A magnificent Sangiovese.

Sourced from a small 0.8-hectare plot with high levels of limestone, gypsum, weathered sandstone, and clay in the soil. This organically farmed vineyard is situated in a relatively cool, sheltered location.
