Sangiovese IGT - Tenuta le Potazzine

The Sangiovese IGT impresses with its deep red color, shimmering in dark ruby tones. This noble grape variety produces a multitude of aromas that enchant with the first sniff. Initial notes range from ripe cherries and juicy plums to subtle hints of dried herbs and a touch of vanilla. Over time, complex nuances of earth and light spices unfold, adding depth and character to the wine. On the palate, the Sangiovese IGT displays vibrant freshness and a harmonious balance. The tannin-rich structure supports the fruity aromas and creates a delicious tasting experience. The long-lasting finish leaves an elegant aftertaste of ripe berries and a hint of oak, beautifully rounding off the entire tasting experience.

Vinification of the Sangiovese IGT from Tenuta le Potazzine

The vinification of the Sangiovese IGT takes place through several meticulous steps to fully unveil the quality of the grapes. The grapes grow in the sun-drenched vineyards of Tuscany, where they thrive under ideal climatic conditions. Grapes ripening here receive plenty of light, leading to particularly intense aromas. A selective harvest is done by hand to ensure that only the best grapes enter the production process. After harvesting, the grapes are gently destemmed and pressed. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, with special attention given to temperature control. This enhances the fruitiness and preserves the fresh aromas. After fermentation, the wine matures in high-quality oak barrels, which add extra complexity. The aging process lasts several months, giving the Sangiovese IGT its unique character and fullness.
