2021 Monte Calvo Ciliegiolo

DOC Maremma Toscana
ciliegiolo 100%
Red wine

Monte Calvo is a small volcano belonging to the Volsini Volcanic District in Central Italy and gives its name to one of our ciliegiolo wines that focus on research on the volcanic terroir.

The vinification of Monte Calvo takes place in steel vats with some percent of non-destemmed grapes and no added yeasts. It ages in big barrels for 12 months and is then bottled.

Red ruby with purple notes, quite vibrant. In its bouquet, you can detect aromatic herbs, turmeric, iris, and a somewhat wild note. It is smooth and elegant, the wood perfectly balanced, with an extra note of white pepper.
