About this wine
A Noble Expression of Tuscan Tradition
Susanna Crociani's 14th century cellars are situated in the heart of Tuscany in the town of Montepulciano. The vineyards, covering about 10 hectares, are on medium-textured soils well-suited to the growth of the vine and giving excellent results. They are planted with Prugnolo Gentile (Sangiovese), Canaiolo Nero, Mammolo and white varieties.
Aged for 24 months in Slavonian oak and then a further two months in bottle, this blend of 80% Sangiovese, 10% Canaiolo and 10% Mammolo has a ruby red colour with orange hints. The nose is delicate and intense with a bouquet of pronounced notes of redcurrants and violets. Dry, rounded and harmonious, the palate is full of red fruit flavours of redcurrant and red cherries with spicy notes and vanilla from oak ageing. Well structured with fine-grained tannins and a long, mouth-filling finish. A fine match for roasted red meats, poultry and game, and pasta dishes with rich tomato sauces.
