Sangiovese and Merlot give life to this Toscana IGT Rosso, made from carefully tended vineyards on the hills of Pozzarello and hand-harvested to preserve the quality and integrity of the grapes.
Stainless steel vinification and extended maceration give rise to a balanced, smooth-flowing wine, marked by red fruit aromas and a pleasing harmony on the palate, where freshness and softness integrate naturally.
