      Seven years of barrel aging and a unique drying process give this hand-picked 2008 Sangiovese unprecedented depth, power and complexity.

      Product description

      This 2008 vintage is an exceptional Sangiovese wine with an alcohol content of 16.5% vol. The wine has a remarkable residual sugar content of 300 g/l and a total acidity of 8.25 g/l, providing a rich and well-balanced flavor. It is produced in a limited batch of only 650 bottles and comes from the vineyards of San Miniato in Tuscany, Italy, where the vines are over 40 years old. The grapes are grown on a 0.8-hectare plot with a high density of 3500 vines per hectare, which contributes to the concentration of flavor.

      The soil in the vineyard consists of sandstone with a high pH and a significant amount of Pliocehne marine fossils, well integrated with clay. This unique terroir produces a wine that is both powerful and refined. The grapes are hand-harvested in the last ten days of September, then dried for five months before fermentation in completely sealed oak barrels. The wine matures for seven years in the same barrels, allowing the flavors to develop deeply and enhancing its complexity.

      The aroma of this wine strikes a perfect balance between the sweetness of dried apricots, honey, and macerated berries. The taste is full and luscious, with a harmonious blend of sweetness, lively acidity, and dried fruit. It pairs wonderfully with moments of meditation, blue cheese, chocolate cakes, foie gras, or while smoking cigars. Store the bottle on its side in a cool place, preferably below 20°C, and serve at 12-14°C for the best experience.
