Vineyard: A 2-hectare, 25-year-old Sangiovese plot that produces big bunches with soft tannins at full ripeness. The resulting wine straddles the boundary between light red and dark rose.

Aging: 25% Whole cluster. Maceration lasts for approximately 10 days before aging in old French demi-muid for 5 months an additional 6+ months in tank and bottle.

Notes: This is a new addition to the Montepeloso line. It is meant to be a lighter drinking red wine for everyday consumption. Think a Tuscan Coast version of Schiava to be served slightly chilled. Juicy and bright with 2 grams of sugar to add to mouthfeel.
