The Tasting
-
Appearance & Nose
01Sangiovese, the principal grape variety of Tuscany, finds in the Orcia area an expression that, with Sasso di Luna, manifests itself in a wine with a decided body, guided by a distinct fruity component and a notable structure that marries well with the vocation of these lands. In the glass, it presents an intense ruby red, promising depth.

Palate & Finish
02On the nose, notes emerge reminiscent of ripe cherry and earthy hints, a prelude to a savory sip characterized by a present but integrated tannicity, typical of Sangiovese in this denomination. It is a wine that calls for robust dishes, perfect with a bistecca alla fiorentina or a braised wild boar.
