Tenuta di Gramineta

by Tenuta di Gramineta · vintage 2016

Red wine blend Sangiovese 80% and Merlot 20%. The Sangiovese rests in steel tanks for about a year awaiting blending with the Merlot which is aged for twelve months in oak barriques with a particular and very light toasting. Once a crime is committed, the blend is bottled and aged for six months in the bottle. After it is available to drink. The wine boasts of having received the highest score among the organic wines of Italy in the BIO GUIDE 2022. Suggestions of taste and flavor Ruby red to the eye. The intense olfactory spectrum is articulated with fruity sensations of cherry and small red fruits accompanied by hints of licorice and vanilla, then spices and hints of aromatic herbs. The sip is soft, fresh and fruity.
