Bertinga Toscana I.G.T. 2016, 1.5L
The quintessential Super Tuscan and the faithful expression of its unique terroir.
100% from the Bertinga vineyard, planted in Albarese soil composed of predominantly calcareous marl, clay and sedimentary rocks.
This is a blend of 50% Sangiovese, 50% Merlot. Vinified in temperature-controlled stainless-steel vats and concrete tanks. Aged in Austrian oak tonneaux and French oak barriques (10% new) for 18 months in the temperature-controlled cellar. Bottle aged for 18 months prior to release.
On the nose fascinating notes of red fruit and small black berry fruit are integrated with spices, undergrowth and mineral notes. Full-bodied and structured wine with a dense and important tannic texture. The sip is taut, beautiful opening in the center of the mouth and a finish of great freshness and persistence.
