Three red Tuscan blend wines
Tenuta Torciano | Super Tuscan "Terrestre" 2016 Our Terrestre, forming part of the line of Super-Tuscan wines linked to the great territory of our region, has proved to be a great success and has received an award at Vinitaly in Verona last April. This is a clone of the first grape Tuscany, mother of great Brunello. The Terrestre has a musky smell with sweet notes of dried leaves, characteristics of the Tuscan woods. The scent of vanilla derives from the first quality used for aging and the famous land of Montalcino, the quality of which exalt the natural scents. Recommend with the pasta with a sauce made from red meat or in conjunction with roast meat. In the month of Sept, in Tuscany, at the beginning of the month have occurred of thunderstorms, creating discomfort during the step of harvesting the grapes but helping to make an overall great wine
Podere le Ripi | BONSAI Super Tuscan IGT 2017 Toscana Rosso IGT Bonsai is a unique wine in the world. Not only because it is a true excellence of Italian enology, but also because it comes from a vineyard planted with the incredible density of 62,500 plants per hectare, compared to the usual 5,000 or 6,000. A seemingly absurd idea, motivated by the absolute search for quality. An exasperated competition between plants and very low plants yields, have led to the production of a Sangiovese with extraordinary characteristics, aromatically intense, deep, fresh and balsamic, perfect interpreter of the magnificent Montalcino terroir.
Tenuta Torciano | Super Tuscan "Trecento Years Anniversary" 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese 2011 The sun-filled, early-maturing 2011 vintage perfectly expresses the qualities of Trecento . The wine appears an intense, youthful fruit that is fully ripe yet at the same time crisp and lively, backgrounded by delicate nuances of balsam and toastiness. On the palate, the powerful concentration immediately impresses, as do the tannins, massive yet silksmooth and glossy, which allows the wine to completely fill the mouth but with no feeling of heaviness. The finish, near endless, is deliciously pungent and spicy, with a welcome crispness throughout. The Sangiovese, from the Latin "Sangius jovis", is the predominant grape-variety in this wine and the calm, elegant characteristics of the Cabernet give this wine ample olfactory complexity and greater strength to both body and flavor. Bright and intense ruby red color. Enveloping, elegant, classic perfumes with fruity and balsamic notes that duet each other in a delicious organoleptic balance. Taste of extraordinary class, intact, with fine and velvety tannins. Very long finish.
