The wine of our countryside, the wine of our peasant tradition, the wine of sharecropping. Back then, there was no talk of blends; wine was not produced to be sold, but to be drunk. The purpose was only one: to bring a good bottle of red wine to the table every day. Each family chose whether and how long to leave it in the barrels, but one thing was certain: there were two grape varieties in those barrels: Montepulciano and Sangiovese. Today, as then, we offer that combination of two grape varieties that have always been together.
With an exuberant nature, this wine tells of a landscape colored with brilliant tones. Raspberries, cyclamen, sour cherries. A surprising citrusy touch of chinotto at the finish refreshes and invites you to refill your glasses.
Recommended with red meats and pasta dishes with tomato sauce. Try it with a pepperoni pizza.
