Tenute Lunelli Podernovo Costa Toscana Sangiovese Solenida 2019

Solenida is a refined single-varietal Sangiovese from Tenuta Podernovo, crafted to capture the purest expression of Costa Toscana. Born from a rigorous selection of fruit through the AnimavitisR project, it highlights the character of the vineyard’s micro-zones while honoring the estate’s fossil-rich soils through its name, inspired by the Solenida shell.

Tasting Notes
Expect a vibrant ruby-red color with the lively clarity typical of well-made Sangiovese. The bouquet is likely to open with red cherry, wild berry, floral notes, and a subtle earthy, mineral edge, reflecting both the variety and the estate’s terroir. On the palate, Solenida should feel precise and energetic, with fresh acidity, fine tannins, and concentrated red-fruit flavors balanced by savory, soil-driven nuances. Its structure suggests good aging potential, allowing the wine to develop greater depth, spice, and complexity over time.

Production
Made from organically grown Sangiovese at Tenuta Podernovo in Tuscany, Solenida comes from careful vineyard selection enabled by the AnimavitisR project, which allows individual micro-zones to be harvested separately. This approach helps preserve small, compact clusters and concentrated berries, maximizing quality and site expression. The wine also takes its name from the Solenida shell, a reference to the fossil-rich soils of the estate.

Food & Serving
Solenida pairs beautifully with Tuscan cuisine such as grilled meats, roasted poultry, pappardelle with wild boar ragù, mushroom dishes, and aged pecorino. Serve at 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 30–60 minutes if drinking young to allow its aromas and structure to open fully.
