Zingari Toscana IGT - Petra

The Zingari Toscana IGT delights with its deep ruby red color. On the nose, intense aromas of ripe cherries, violet flowers, and harmonious spices unfold. A hint of fine vanilla and delicate herbs gives this wine exquisite complexity. On the palate, it presents itself full-bodied with a velvety texture, balanced acidity, and a long, fruity finish. The perfectly integrated tannins contribute to the elegance, while the fresh, fruity notes of black currant and plum indulge the senses.

Vinification of the Zingari Toscana IGT by Petra

The grapes for the Zingari Toscana IGT come from select locations in Tuscany. Here, they benefit from a mild climate and mineral-rich soils that allow the full aroma to unfold. The harvest takes place in the early morning hours to secure the freshness and aromatic substances of the grapes.

After harvesting, the grapes are carefully destemmed and pressed. Fermentation occurs under controlled temperatures in stainless steel tanks, preserving the varietal typical aromas gently. The maceration lasts for a period of 10 to 15 days, with regular pumping over ensuring the ideal extraction of tannins.

Subsequently, the wine matures for at least 12 months in French barriques. This aging imparts a fine wood note and rounds off the flavor. Before bottling, the Zingari Toscana IGT undergoes a gentle filtration.
