Food Suggestion
Ageing
Cellar	A minimalist approach to winemaking with natural fermentation and light punch downs for soft extraction. Post-fermentation maceration was followed by a light pressing and 12-month maturation in large 500L Old French Oak Barrels. A bright and vibrant red with the ability to develop further complexity over time, a pure expression of its terroir and the hands guiding it. No fining, only light filtration. Harmless natural wine crystals may occur.
Vineyard	Sangiovese is the most planted black grape variety in Italy, used to produce various styles of single varietal red wines and blends. The Sangiovese is planted on poor sandy decomposed granite soils with clay subsoil. This delivers smaller concentrated berries.
