MONTECUCCO SANGIOVESE RISERVA DOCG 2015

An outstanding vintage for Tuscany, with very well-balanced wines in terms of aroma, fruit and tannins.

Sangiovese grapes, the name from Sanguis Jovis (Jupiter’s blood), grown in the Montecucco area in south-central Tuscany.

Aged for 30 months in French oak tonneaux. Deep ruby red colour, particularly brilliant.

Typical Sangiovese nose, an intense bouquet of black currant, dark cherry, blackberry, and light spice.

Fine balance between concentration and elegance, well-structured body, light tannins, quite some oak, classic acidity and alcohol.

The wine is ready to drink, but can age eight to ten more years.
