Characteristic

Made from 100% Sagrantino, a single varietal, this wine comes from Italy's most structured and tannically dense DOCG region. The grapes are late-ripening, typically harvested from mid-October to the end of the month. The thick skins and high polyphenol content make them ideal for long fermentation and aging. Fermentation takes place in large French oak tanks for three to four weeks, with temperatures controlled below 30°C to prevent over-extraction. After fermentation, the wine is transferred to French oak barrels and large wooden tanks for at least 18 months of aging. According to DOCG standards, this type of wine must be aged for a total of 37 months before release. The aromas are concentrated and multi-layered, exhibiting notes of red berries, red mandarins, spices, undergrowth, and subtle leather and herbal notes. The palate is full-bodied, with high and firm tannins, defined acidity, and a pronounced structure. While somewhat robust in its youth, it already displays good balance; with age, it reveals more balsams, spices, and wild herbs. Pairs well with rich, grilled red meats and intensely flavored aged cheeses; also a great wine for long-term aging. ★Gambero Rosso (Red Shrimp) Tre Bicchieri (Three Glasses) - 2019 Vintage ★2024 Guida I Vini Di Veronelli (Tre Stelle Oro) - Three Gold Stars
