The palate is full and warm, with balanced fruit, velvety tannins and a soft, persistent finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe grapes come from Valiano’s vineyards in Castelnuovo Berardenga, near Siena, at 200–300 metres above sea level. North-east-facing slopes and well-drained, stony calcareous soils encourage even ripening and help shape the wine’s concentration and structure. Hand-harvested grapes are destemmed and gently pressed, then fermented in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks with around 15 days of skin maceration and regular pump-overs. The wine is aged in barrels for nine months to soften the tannins and bring the structure into balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eServe at around 16–18°C. It pairs well with charcuterie, game dishes and pappardelle with wild boar ragù.
