The organic grapes are VIVA certified, the protocol of the Ministry of the Environment.
No Sulphites added | BIO | Sangiovese IGT Toscana rosso | 2024. For the last ten years we have been vinifying a pure Sangiovese without any added chemicals, using selected yeasts in order to reduce to almost zero also the natural sulfites produced by the
fermentation. Year after year we discover the potential of Sangiovese «without sulfites added», a new typicity made of purplish-red colors so intense they seem impossible, elegant structures and great richness of primary aromas. This wine also has shown an excellent capacity of ageing and is already a great wine, but each year we continue to refine it.
Grapes Organic Sangiovese 100%.
The Year 2024. Spring rains created sufficient reserves for the summer without suffering from water stress. The flowering phase developed regularly. High temperatures in July and August. From mid-August, the temperature returned normal, promoting optimal maturation. The harvest took place on 1st October 2024.
Vinification and Ageing. The grapes were handpicked at perfect maturation. The grapes are destemmed and gently pressed without breaking the skins, encouraging contact between the juice and skins. The grapes are then placed into the maceration tank at a constant temperature of 26°C, initiating alcoholic fermentation. The prolonged maceration allows for the extraction of aromatic notes and polyphenols, which increase the colour intensity and provide protection as an alternative to the addition of SO2. The wine is then separated from the skins. Alcoholic fermentation continues at 26°C until all sugars are consumed. This is followed by malolactic fermentation, which reduces the wine’s acidity and promises greater roundness. The wine is left on fine lees for about three months, increasing complexity and improving sensory characteristics, providing a protective antioxidant function.
