WINEMAKER NOTES

Enrico Santini has made a name for himself as one of the most dynamic and respected producers in the prestigious Bolgheri DOC. A native of the area, he is a “garagiste” in the truest sense of the word. Enrico is meticulous in his vineyards, his wines come exclusively from his organic estate, and they radiate his profound passion. As one of the only wine producers in Bolgheri who was born and raised in the area, he has a deep commitment to the region that developed out of his love for the land and the microclimate of this spectacular Tuscan coastal area.

TASTING NOTES

Intense red color with smoky violet hues. Clean, focused aromas of black fruit accompanied by toasted oak. Great intensity and harmonious on the palate; rich with layers of flavors, concentrated with generous tannins.

VINIFICATION

The grapes were carefully selected and vinified separately, maceration taking place over a period of 20 – 28 days. Temperature controlled fermentation. The wine remained for 18 months in French oak barriques followed by additional aging in bottle for one year prior to being released.
