Grapes: Syrah 50% - Alicante 50%
Vines: grapes from young, high-density vines (6000 plants per hectare), situated approximately 6 km from the coast in Maremma, Tuscany, in the Scansano district.
Vinification: maceration within 10 days, temperature controlled fermentation. Maturation in vats for approx. 4 months.
A newborn but with mighty cry! Already a sell-out success, this is a wine to fall in love with. Its sheer simplicity makes its character strong, an asset that comes from a blend of Alicante (grown in Maremma since the year dot, or more precisely, since the times of Stato dei Presidi, go on, click, learn something new today), and Syrah. A real Mediterranean wine, with dark scents of chocolate and liquorice. Perfect wine for...everything.
Q: Who does this wine remind you of?
A: Possibly Barak Obama...listening to Queen.
