A single owner, a single winemaker, three cellars in the three principal Tuscan wine making areas, a terrific synergy between Elisabetta Gnudi Angelini's properties, but no common wine.
To answer this lack, a new Sangiovese IGT made from grapes from the three estates, Caparzo, Borgo Scopeto and Doga delle Clavule. The family crest works surprisingly well to illustrate the concept: the shield bears three roses that represent the three estates.
PRIMARY FERMENTATION: Separate vinifications with 15-day macerations at 28 °C – 15% of the Sangiovese produced in Montalcino undergoes cryomaceration at 8 °C for 48 hours to extract primary aromas, followed by a 7-day fermentation at 25 °C, which is then interrupted to have a higher residual sugar content for the final blend.
MALOLACTIC FERMENTATION: spontaneous.
FIRS YEAR PRODUCED: 2010
COLOR: intense ruby with violet reflections.
BOUQUET: intense, fruity, and spicy, with ripe blackberries, wild strawberries, spice and vanilla.
PALATE: full, fruity, persistent, and soft, with ripe blackberries, wild strawberries, and spice and vanilla in the finish.
