Appellation: Toscana IGT Sangiovese Region: Tuscany Alcohol: 12.5% Grapes: 100% Sangiovese
Vinification and refinement This Sangiovese “in purezza” (pure) is produced with selected grapes grown on a single vineyard belonging to the Burchino Estate, called Le Corti.
Le Corti Cru is characterized by its particular exposition and the rich soil. The vines are cultivated with the cordon spur training system in order to obtain from 1 to 2 kg of grapes per vine.
The grapes are selected and harvested by hand. After the primary fermentation in stainless steel the malolactic fermentation takes place in French oak barriques where the wine is refined for a minimum period of 12 months.
Wine description Colour: Bright ruby red wine.
Bouquet: It has an elegant impact on the nose with hints of lemon on a raspberry background.
Taste: Warm and passionate with slight tannins, it lingers on the palate and is ready to drink now but will age well on its graceful balance.
Food pairings Choops, rack of lamb, pork steaks, farmyard chicken, pasta al pesto.
