Product Details
A single estate wine that used to be an IGT with 20 percent merlot and cabernet sauvignon but now 100 percent sangiovese from Tenuta le Maciè. A north exposition that just 20 years ago could not fully ripen. The acidity still runs high but the fruit ripeness has caught up and so a much more balanced wine, in the vein of let's say Radda Chianti Classico. This is harvested in October, later than many with calcari (Alberese) soil and its outcroppings of schist-flakey Galestro. No new wood, just 3rd and 4th passage for a light covering but the fruit still stands on its own. This is very refined and sleek with mid-term aging the sure and famous guarantee. Drink 2024-2028. Tasted December 2023.
