The King of Tuscany
Sangiovese is the king of Tuscan red wines and represents the essence of the territory from which it comes. This wine is produced with high-quality grapes cultivated in the hills of Tuscany and has a long and illustrious history dating back to the Middle Ages. Its intense red color is accompanied by a strong aroma of cherry, plum, and spices, with light notes of vanilla. On the palate, it is fresh and fruity, with soft tannins and a persistent and pleasant aftertaste. Sangiovese is a versatile wine that pairs perfectly with Italian dishes such as pasta with meat sauce, lasagna, and Florentine steak. It is an ideal wine for celebrating special occasions or for accompanying a casual dinner with friends. Choose our Sangiovese and it will provide unforgettable moments of taste, inviting you to discover the beauty and complexity of the Tuscan territory with every sip.
