Origin and vineyard

The grapes come from the Lodola zone near Valiano, close to Montepulciano, from vineyards approximately 10 years old. :contentReference[oaicite:0]{index=0}

The vineyards are situated at an altitude of approximately 300 meters, which ensures sufficient freshness and aromatic precision in the grapes. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}

The combination of altitude and the Tuscan sun results in a rosé with both ripe fruit and lively acidity.

Grapes and style

This rosé is made from 100% Sangiovese.

The choice for direct pressing results in a light color and a refined style, with an emphasis on freshness, aromatic purity, and drinkability.

Vinification and aging

After gentle pressing of destemmed grapes, fermentation follows in stainless steel tanks, aimed at preserving freshness and fruit expression.

The wine subsequently ages for 6 months in steel tanks and another 3 months in the bottle, which ensures extra balance and refinement. No wood is used, allowing the wine to retain its pure and direct character.

Color, smell and taste

In the glass, the wine has a light, elegant rosé color. The nose is fresh and refined with notes of strawberry, raspberry, and a hint of citrus.

On the palate, the wine is crisp and lively, with a beautiful balance between fruit and acidity. The structure is light yet precise, with a refreshing and clean finish.

Style and character

This rosé is crafted to showcase finesse and purity. It combines the recognizable structure of Sangiovese with a light and accessible style.

The result is a gastronomic rosé with character, which clearly shows its Tuscan origins without becoming heavy.

Volume 2025

The 2025 vintage in Tuscany experienced a balanced growing season, with warm days and cool nights. This ensured good ripening while retaining fresh acidity. For rosé, this translates into a style that is both aromatic and energetic, with beautiful tension and precision.

Food and wine pairings

This rosé is versatile. Think of light dishes such as salads, grilled vegetables, fish, or shellfish. It also comes into its own with charcuterie or Mediterranean dishes. Serve at around 8 to 10 degrees for optimal freshness.
