Wine Description:

Exclusively produced with 100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes. Powerful and deeply expressive from the outset, with heady black currant, plum, and cedar aromas. Layered currant and black cherry flavors are elegantly accented by notes of clove.

Bold, coating tannins frame the entire wine, and hints of slate add dimension to a dark, brooding finish. Ideal with grilled meat, structured first courses such as pappardelle with mushrooms or pasta with white meat ragù and medium-aged cheeses.

Wine Cellar:

Tenuta Torciano Winery is situated in the heart of Tuscany, 35 minutes from Florence and 20 minutes from Siena, surrounded by beautiful rolling hills and a succession of unique greenery that features towering cypress trees, long stretches of beautiful vineyards, olive groves, forests of oaks and lovely villages.

When you visit Tenuta Torciano Winery, you will totally immerse yourself in Italian culture, together with a Tuscan family consisting of 13 generations of wine producers. Here you will experience warm hospitality and additional Tuscan traditions handed down from father to son.

Area of Production:

Located in central Italy along the Tyrrhenian coast, Tuscany is home to some of the world's most notable wine regions. Toscana IGT is the most famous – and the most commonly used – of Italy's Indicazione Geografica Tipica (IGT) titles. The geographical region it indicates is, in short, Tuscany.

Toscana IGT wines can be made in any village in any of Tuscany's 10 provinces.

Grapes:

World-renowned and well-travelled, cabernet sauvignon makes some of the world's finest red wines, working either on its own, or blended with other varieties. Cabernet Sauvignon wines always seem to demonstrate a handful of common character traits: deep color, good tannin structure, moderate acidity and aromas of blackcurrant, tomato leaf, dark spices and cedarwood. The cabernet sauvignon grape is a hybrid grape, originally formed by the crossing of cabernet franc (a red grape) and sauvignon blanc (a white grape). Cabernet sauvignon wines come in single-varietals (made of 100% cabernet sauvignon grapes) and blends.
