The Tasting

Appearance & Nose
01Orcia Sangiovese is the appellation that identifies this wine, a Tuscan red that by regulation must have its roots in the Sangiovese grape, the very soul of the region. In the glass, this SassodiSole example reveals an intense ruby color that anticipates a bouquet of forthright and pleasant aromas.

Palate & Finish
02On the palate, the vibrant acidity typical of Sangiovese is paired with a well-present but not intrusive tannic structure, outlining a satisfying sip. It is magnificently suited to accompany rustic pappa al pomodoro, a bistecca alla fiorentina, or pappardelle with wild boar.
