Vinification of the I Vini del Mare Belvento Sangiovese Toscana from Petra

This red wine clearly focuses on a single grape variety, namely Sangiovese. For this wonderfully balanced varietal wine from Petra, only top-quality grape material was used. The grapes grow under optimal conditions in Tuscany. The vines dig their roots deep into soils of sand, limestone, clay, and marl. Once the perfect physiological ripeness is ensured, the grapes for the I Vini del Mare Belvento Sangiovese Toscana are harvested exclusively by hand, without the aid of coarse and poorly selective machines. After the harvest, the grapes are immediately taken to the winery. Here, they are sorted and gently crushed. Fermentation then takes place in large wooden barrels at controlled temperatures. The vinification is followed by aging for 15 months in large Slavonian oak barrels. After barrel aging, there is further extensive maturation in bottles, which makes this red wine even more complex.
