Why shop with us?
San Giusto a Rentennano Percarlo is one of Tuscany’s most compelling expressions of pure Sangiovese, crafted from meticulously selected fruit and made in a magnum format that further enhances its aging potential. Born from the estate’s best vineyards and low-yield vines, it is a wine of depth, structure, and unmistakable sense of place, with a reputation built on long cellar life and powerful elegance.
Tasting Notes
In the glass, Percarlo 2022 typically shows a deep, vibrant ruby hue that signals concentration and youth. The nose is layered and precise, with aromas of ripe red cherry, sour cherry, wild berries, violet, dried herbs, and subtle notes of spice, earth, and mineral complexity.
On the palate, it is firm, focused, and beautifully structured, with the natural energy of Sangiovese carrying flavors of red fruit, licorice, savory herbs, and stony minerality. The tannins are present but refined, and the magnum format suggests even greater harmony over time. This is a wine built for patience and can reward extended cellaring for many years.
Production
Percarlo is made from 100% Sangiovese sourced from the estate’s top parcels at San Giusto a Rentennano in Tuscany. The vines are kept to very low yields, around 1 kg per plant, and the fruit is often harvested at slightly advanced ripeness to capture full flavor and structure. The resulting wine reflects the estate’s terroir with clarity, combining mineral-driven character, concentration, and the natural tension that defines great Sangiovese.
Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with classic Tuscan dishes such as bistecca alla fiorentina, pappardelle with wild boar ragù, roast lamb, and braised beef. It also works well with aged hard cheeses and truffle-based dishes. Serve at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for at least 1–2 hours to allow the wine to open and soften in its youth.
