Bertinga Sassi Chiusi
| Vintage: | 2019 |
|---|---|
| Description: | 85% Sangiovese, 15% Merlot. "On the nose intriguing notes of red fruit, cherry and violet alternate with small black berry fruits, mineral notes. A full-bodied and well-structured wine while maintaining tension, clean and well integrated tannins, a final with great persistence." - Massanois, Importer. This is the Estate's true "second label," whose cuve mirrors that of the "grand vin," the Bertinga: Sangiovese and Merlot. The Sangiovese ferments and matures in concrete tanks for 12 to 18 months; the Merlot ferments and matures in stainless-steel vats, depending on the vintage it can also mature in used barriques. The two varieties are then blended and bottle-aged for 18 months before release. Sassi Chiusi combines the approachability and freshness of a Chianti Classico with the depth and the aging capacity of the best Super Tuscans. 2200 cases. Organically Farmed |
