Il Pugnale - Guido Gualandi

The elegant Il Pugnale from Guido Gualandi runs into the glass with a bright purple-red color. Poured into a red wine glass, this Old World red wine offers wonderfully complex aromas of raspberry, rounded off by further fruity nuances contributed by barrel aging.

On the palate, Il Pugnale from Guido Gualandi opens wonderfully aromatic, fruit-driven and balanced. On the tongue, this well-balanced red wine is distinguished by an incredibly meaty, velvety and dense texture. On the finish, this wine from the Tuscan wine-growing region delights with beautiful length. Once again, hints of raspberry appear.

Vinification of Guido Gualandi Il Pugnale

The basis for the balanced Il Pugnale from Italy is grapes from the Foglia Tonda and Cabernet Sauvignon varieties. After being harvested by hand, the grapes make their way to the press house as quickly as possible. There they are sorted and gently crushed. Fermentation then takes place in small and large wooden barrels at controlled temperatures. After fermentation, the wine matures for several months in barriques made of oak.
