Sangiovese is a somewhat late-ripening vine, so harvesting can only begin between late September and early October. The Sangiovese grapes are harvested with great care and precision. Afterward, a second, rigorous selection process is carried out. Only the finest bunches are allowed to be bottled, according to the winemaker. The entire wine is briefly aged in the Conte di Campiano cellars before being available.
The moment you open the bottle, the fun begins: a ripe and sultry aroma greets you. Pour the warm red juice into a large glass, revealing a beautiful dark purple color—a hallmark of a top-quality Sangiovese. Swirling reveals beautiful aromas of ripe cherries, stewed blackberries, and hints of cinnamon, toffee, and vanilla. The palate is ripe and very smooth, with a strong emphasis on black fruit and light spices like cinnamon and bay leaf. This red wine's softness is paramount, making it a perfect pairing with gourmet dishes, red meat, pasta, and pizza. And last but not least, it's perfect as an evening wine, as this wine never gets old.
