monte calvo - ciliegiolo maremma toscana doc
Description
Monte Calvo is a small volcano belonging to the Volsini Volcanic District (Umbria/Toscana/Lazio) and, as Poggio Pinzo, gives its name to one of our ciliegiolo wines that focus on the research on the volcanic terroir.
This ciliegiolo has been selected in a specific and homogeneous polygon within the old San Lorenzo vineyard.
The vinification of Monte Calvo takes place in steel vats; then it ages in big barrels for 12 months and then bottled. Stays in bottle for about 6 months before being sold,
Red ruby with purple notes, quite vibrant. In its bouquet you can detect aromatic herbs, turmeric, iris, a somewhat wild note. It is smooth and elegant, the wood perfectly balanced, with an extra note of white pepper.
