2022 sassotondo rosso ciliegiolo

DOC maremma toscana
ciliegiolo 100%
Red wine

Cilegiolo from our vineyards in Sovana and Pitigliano, of different ages. Guyot is the training system and the spacing varies from 3000 to 4.500 plants per hectare.

The grapes are picked and selected manually. Fermentation takes place without the addition of yeasts and it lasts, maceration included, 15 to 20 days. The wine matures for a few months in steel tanks.

Its color is ruby red, of nice vivacity; the nose is intense with notes of red fruits, plum, licorice, and the typical touch of ground white pepper.

The taste is warm and smooth thanks to tannins that are present but not aggressive and to a structure backed up by alcohol and a nice acidity.
