Made by Federico Carletti’s winery, this special cru is bound very deeply to the Sangiovese grape. Until the 1990s, it used to be aged entirely in traditional barrels, but since the 1997 harvest, after a gradual changeover, all the wines have been aged in barriques.
Surprisingly purple in tonality, this wine is youthful and concentrated. The bouquet is remarkable for the clarity and cleanness of the decidedly intense aromas it offers, which range from dried flowers to pleasant spices, taking in cloves and pepper along the way, ennobling the fruity base of blackcurrants and blackberries and opening out the balsamic notes of the finish. Once on the palate, the opulence of this wine becomes instantly apparent. Chewy, with great consistency, it works by caressing the palate with tannins which, although noticeable, tend to melt into the alcohol. The finish is prolonged and loaded with flavour.

Prugnolo Gentile 80%, Canaiolo Nero 15% and Mammolo 5%
