The "Tempranillo 2018" is a powerful red wine, entirely made from 100% Tempranillo grapes, from a 4.2-hectare vineyard in San Miniato, Tuscany. The vines, aged 15 to 23 years, grow on sandstone soils with Pliocene marine fossils, dense white clay, and very high mineral complexity, at 100-150 meters above sea level. With 7000 vines per hectare and a yield of 1.5 kg per vine, harvested in the first ten days of September, this wine was produced in 23,000 75 cl bottles with 13.5% alcohol, trained with Spurred Cordon and Guyot systems.
Winemaking happens in temperature-controlled cement vats with native yeasts and a 30-day skin maceration, followed by 15 months of maturation – 50% in French oak barrels and 50% in cement vats – plus 6 months in the bottle. This gives the wine a deep red color with violet and blue highlights, typical of Tempranillo, yet transparent and brilliant. The nose starts with floral and dark fruit scents, but its real strength lies in intense minerality and savory notes.
In the mouth, this Tempranillo is smooth, yet more complex due to San Miniato’s soils, with higher acidity making it fluid and refreshing. Store the bottle on its side at 20 °C or less, away from light, and uncork an hour before serving at 16-18 °C. It pairs with Tuscan dishes, as well as oriental and exotic flavors with fruits and vegetables. This wine offers a layered experience, perfect for fans of refined, mineral red wines with a Tuscan twist.
Wat een machtige wijn. Mega intens, super smaakvol en vol. geproefd in de kelder bij Eva en thuis net zo lekker! Tempranillo uit Italie, dat zie je nauwelijks.
