Soldera Case Basse, Sangiovese Toscana IGT Case Basse Soldera 2021 MG

Soldera Case Basse 2021 is a 100% Sangiovese Toscana IGT, tasted as a barrel sample and showing the estate’s signature combination of brightness, aromatic lift and finely layered character. From a vintage marked by spring frost followed by a warm summer, it is an intriguing early glimpse of a wine whose final expression will emerge after blending and bottle ageing.

Tasting Notes
The barrel sample is described as bright and luminous, with lifted aromas of fresh berries and red currant, followed by old-fashioned rose, liquorice root and a delicate note of wet slate and petrichor. On the palate, fresh red-fruit character and floral, mineral nuances are closely woven together, giving the wine an elegant, concentrated impression.

Production
The 2021 growing season began with a significant frost on 6–7 April, followed by an otherwise normal spring and a warm summer. Harvest began on 6 September. The wine is made from 100% Sangiovese; after the final blend is assembled, it is returned to botte before bottling. These notes do not specify the vineyard’s terroir or harvesting methods. At the time of the November 2024 barrel tasting, bottling was planned for spring 2025, with the exact date still to be decided.

Food & Serving
Its freshness and Sangiovese character should suit dishes such as roast lamb, bistecca alla Fiorentina, wild mushroom preparations or aged Tuscan pecorino. Serve at around 16–18°C. Once bottled, allow it time to breathe; a gentle decant may help open the wine, though the barrel-sample notes do not establish a specific decanting requirement.

Producer
Soldera Case Basse is the Montalcino estate founded by Gianfranco Soldera in the 1970s, renowned for its distinctive, Sangiovese-focused wines and uncompromising approach to quality. It is regarded as one of Tuscany’s most prestigious producers, and its wines have become benchmarks for collectors drawn to expressive, age-worthy Sangiovese.
