Rosso Valentina
€10,00
This wine is the winery’s first production, consisting of 80% Sangiovese and 20% Merlot. It is a product with personality but very drinkable. The use of sulphites is minimal, ages in barriques and third passage tonneaux for six months. Lively ruby red color with violet reflections, the nose is an explosion of fruit with slight tertiary notes complemented by a delicate smoky hint. In the mouth it is immediate and very confident, urges a second taste immediately, the tannins are still young but already soft, the austere notes of Sangiovese are felt.
