Vinification

From hillside parcels around 220 m a.s.l. in Poggibonsi (Tuscany). Guyot & cordon training with grassed rows; approx. 4,000 vines/ha; 40-year-old vines. Hand-harvested in the 3rd week of September with careful selection.

 


In the cellar

Destemming, pigeage, 3–4 weeks of temperature-controlled skin-contact fermentation in concrete, followed by 24 months in French oak. The Magnum format supports slower evolution and greater longevity—ideal for the table and the cellar.


Food pairings

Pasta with meat ragù; grilled meats (veal or pork). Excellent at long, shared meals; the magnum’s slower evolution rewards extended service.


Worldwide first-class shipping

Temperature-controlled chain, insulated cellar packaging, delivery within two weeks. Minimum order of 6 bottles (multiples of 6).
