The Sangiovese grape variety has very ancient origins. It has been known as such since the 1500s, but its genesis is probably much more remote, dating back to the early settlements of the Etruscans and Romans who cultivated the vine here, reclaiming fertile land from the marshes and passing down the culture of wine to the present day. The Sangiovese is a vigorous grape variety that finds an ideal hilly terrain in this land of Tuscany because it is very dry during the ripening phase of the grapes. Pairings: aged cheeses, red meat main courses Alcohol content: 13.5% Vintage: 2022 Designation: Toscana IGT
